Preface
Application of communication systems in every field has got the importance day by day. Going for communication
system design in the real time environment is really a great challenge. For this purpose some essentials of Industrial
Communications related thing, different types of communication devices, their appropriate applications with examples
should be part of the general knowledge. This book gives the basics of those communications and networks useful for the
applications and designing the Industrial data and distributed control systems.
For the students of Instrumentation engineering, the simplified contents in any subject are scarce. As ongoing stages
of publishing after Project Engineering, planning and management, I have first time authored this book with very great
care. Hope this book will be of great use to students and practicing engineers in various universities.
As its title suggests, this is an introductory text to the theory and practice of Industrial data communications. It is
intended to cover the needs, as these pertain to the scope of S. E. Instrumentation and control engineering education.
This book is the outcome of notes collected since the graduation. Lot of changes took place from 1997 course to 2009
course. I have noted the changes and rewritten the articles as per the syllabus.
A considerable effort has been made to make the book clear and easy to read and understand, without sacrificing
details. The theory has been suitably highlighted and reinforced with the help of diagrams.
The book is specially written for second year students of Instrumentation and control engineering. However, it should
prove suitable for other branches of engineering which include Data communications and networks as one of their
subjects.
The book has been divided into 8 chapters as per university syllabus of Industrial data communications. An attempt
has been made to cover whole syllabus as per university’s curriculum.
The book begins with……
Chapter-1 describes the basic of communication models and its different layers. Also, it covers Noise and cable
engineering.
Chapter-2 explains different communication modes used from the transmission to reception.
Chapter-3 covers almost all the communication networks, their structures, transmission media, data encoding
techniques.
Chapter-4 gives standards for communication between remote systems and different networks developed by
international organization to integrate all system used in throughout the world.
Chapter-5 describes the DCS Engineering and Designs that include industrial networking.
Chapter-6 teaches Application development of Automation using HART communication protocols and continuous
process application.
Chapter-7 gives all the details of Foundation fieldbus and its functionality.
Chapter-8 introduces the distant wireless technologies like WLAN and satellite systems upcoming mobile
communication system like GSM ,CDMA etc.
INTENDED READERSHIP
The book is specially written for the students of S.E. Instrumentation Engineering university course. It is also seen as
being of value to students of MSc, BSc, Electronics and telecommunications, information technology, computer
engineering, Electronic Science and Instrumentation Science. It can also be used by senior students and practicing
engineers in the broad field of Control Systems and instrumentation technology.
BACKGROUND KNOWLEDGE ASSUMED
A prerequisite for using this book is basic knowledge of electronics covered in the previous curriculum in the
Instrumentation Engineering course.
A basic knowledge of science and mathematics has been assumed. The science required is basic physical science. Key
elements of science are developed in appropriate chapters. The mathematics required is just the ability to handle the
numbers, integration, summation, interpret graphs and in a few instances, handle simple algebraic equation. Knowledge
of the subject of biology at Xth
and XIIth
class level would be very useful, although not absolutely essential.

Acknowledgements
Even effort has been made to give credit where it is due for the material contained herein. If inadvertently we have
omitted giving credit, future publications will give due credit to those that are brought to the author’s attention.
I am vastly indebted to many people who have helped and inspired me, in various ways, to start, continue, and
complete this book. I cannot find words to describe the debt I owe to all of my colleagues at various colleges in Pune and
Mumbai University for having created a stimulating atmosphere of academic excellence, the basic element of any long-
lasting endeavor.
My wife Bhaktti and staff of my company typed the original manuscript with great care, artistic taste, skill, and
dedication, unparalleled in my own experience.
Many thanks to Mrs. Vidya Kamankar (R.G.I.T., Andheri, Mumbai) for the constant encouragement and for ongoing
publishing activity with another new and challenging subject for which I have, for the first time, authored the whole book
in my eight years of publishing career. As a publisher, whatever I am expecting from the author, I have considered all the
points while writing the book.
Many thanks to all the faculty members & teachers in various colleges in Mumbai & Pune University & those who
supported & encouraged me to publish the various useful & needful books. The books that are bridging the gap of
contents & simplification between reference materials & applied curriculum of engineering course in Mumbai & Pune
University which will further conform to all the curriculums in Indian Universities. This book is the outcome of eight
years of of Publishing experience and own technical background. The suggestions from all side will be very helpful to the
future reader and students of this subject because the intention is that to have a standard book for this subject. Thanks to
all the students for encouraging me to publish this book.
Unfortunately, sources were not always noted or available; hence, it became impractical to provide an accurate
acknowledgement. Regardless of the source, I wish to express my gratitude to those who may have contributed to this
work, even though anonymously.
