What are the potential network protocols that can be used to send signals via PHP?

When sending signals via PHP, there are several network protocols that can be used such as HTTP, FTP, SMTP, and more. Depending on the specific use case, you can choose the appropriate protocol to send signals to a remote server or service. 

// Example of sending a signal using HTTP protocol
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, 'http://example.com/signal');
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST, 1);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, http_build_query(['data' => 'signal_data']));
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

// Check if the signal was successfully sent
if ($response === false) {
    echo 'Error sending signal via HTTP';
} else {
    echo 'Signal sent successfully via HTTP';
}
