Solution

The characteristics associated with the technique of circuit switching are:

  1. Reserves resources needed for a call from source to destination.
  2. This technique was the basis for the telephone call switching during the 20th century and into the beginning of this current century.
  3. Frequency Division Multiplexing (FDM) and Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) are two approaches for implementing this technique.

The other options are more associated with packet switching, which is used in the Internet, can lead to congestion loss and variable end-end delays, and where data may be queued before being transmitted due to other user’s data that’s also queueing for transmission. In packet switching, resources are used on demand, not reserved in advance.
