Question 6

what is baud rate measured in

Answer 6

bps

Question 7

relationship between baud rate and bit rate

Answer 7

bit rate = baud rate × number of bits encoded per symbol

Question 8

What is bandwidth

Answer 8

maximum rate of data transfer of a communication channel

Question 9

synchronous transmission

Answer 9

bits are transferred over a communication channel at a constant rate

Question 10

asynchronous transmission

Answer 10

Data is transmitted when it is available, rather than at specific intervals
