TRANSMISSION MEDIUM
Discussion on: Bit Rate and Baud Rate, DIFFERENCES BETWEEN BIT RATE AND BAUD RATE Both Bit rate and Baud rate are used in data communication. Bit rate and Baud rate are related using this formula. Bit Rate = Baud rate x the number of bit per baud. It is "packing" 8 bits into each baud: 9600 bps = 1200 baud * 8 bits per baud Bit rate is transmission of number of bits per second. It can be defined as per second travel number of bits. Baud rate is number of signal units per second. It can be defined as per second number of changes. Bit rate focusses on computer efficiency. Baud rate focusses on data transmission. Bit Rate = Baud rate x the number of bit per baud Baud Rate = Bit rate / the number of bit per baud The bit rate is expressed in the unit bit per second unit (symbol: bit/s), often in conjunction with an SI prefix such as kilo (1 kbit/s = 1,000 bit/s), mega (1 Mbit/s = 1,000 kbit/s), giga (1 Gbit/s = 1,000 Mbit/s) or tera (1 Tbit/s =...
