A telephone line has a signal-to-noise ratio of 1000 and a bandwidth of 4 KHz. What is the maximum data rate supported by this line?

Answer :

Answer:

The maximum data rate supported by this line is 39900 bps

Explanation:

The maximum data rate supported by this line can be obtained using the formula below

c = W*log2(S/N+1)

where;

c is the maximum data rate supported by the line

W is the bandwidth = 4kHz

S/N+1 is the signal to noise ratio = 1001

c = 4*log2(1001)

c = 39868.9 ≅ 39900 bps

Therefore, the maximum data rate supported by this line is 39900 bps
