Simplex means the path is reversibleone-way only. So information may be transferred in either direction sharing the one path and only ONE DIRECTION AT A TIME. (e.g. CB Radio)

 
Duplex means information between two points has two paths dedicated for sending and receiving. The path can be on the same medium yet different spectrum, modes or wavelengths or time-shared.

Half-Duplex means only one of two-way paths at most may beis active.   

Full-Duplex means both may be active simultaneously.

Dual Simplex means the 2 lanes are reversible buttwo paths unidirectional in the same direction, andbut hardware maycould be selectedconfigured in either direction.   

(Thus Dual Simplex can be configured to be appearis different Full-Duplex which are not reversiblein both directions.)

Full Duplex is also simultaneous unidirectional but by hardware design limited to opposing directions such as RS-232, USB 2

Flow control may be hardware or software controlled by design.

So Dual Simplex could be dual lanes forin same direction for bandwidth doubling doubling such as USB 3 or configured as Dual Simplex in opposite directions.
