Difference between baseband and broadband - Networking

Explain the difference between baseband and broadband.

Baseband:
- Digital signals are used
- Frequency division multiplexing is not possible
- Baseband is bi-directional transmission
- Short distance signal travelling
- Entire bandwidth of the cable is consumed by a single signal in a baseband transmission.

Broadband:
- Analog signals are used
- Transmission of data is unidirectional
- Signal travelling distance is long
- Frequency division multiplexing is possible
- The signals are sent on multiple frequencies and allow all the multiple signals are sent simultaneously in broadband transmission.

answer
in broadband for signals to be both sent and received, the transmission media must be split into two channels. Alternatively, two cables can be used: one to send and one to receive transmissions.

Reply to broadband questions
In broadband (like Cable) upstream and downstream are on separate frequencies, enabling bi-directional communication. But each frequency is uni-directional.

question on broadband
if broadband is unidirectional then how can we use it for internet? how our requests get transmitted and how we get response???

If data transmission in broadband is unidirectional, then how can we download and upload data simultaneously in a broadband connection, further if broadband uses analog transmission the how we can use digital subscriber line(DSL) in broadband connection???
