Baud Rate

The speed at which telecommunicated data is

transmitted, measured in bytes-per-second (BPS).

"nformally, the number of bits of computer information
transmitted per second. #"$" transmissions have a
baud rate of %&,'() (%&.'( *ilobaud), while modems
typically have a much lower rate of ',+)), ,,-)), or
&+,+)) baud.

The transmission rate at which data flows between
computers. The baud rate is rou!hly e/uivalent to the
number of bits per second (bps).

The number of electronic si!nals that can be
transmitted on a communications channel every
second. "n most cases, this is the same (or very nearly
so) as the common 6cycles per second6 and 6bits per
second6 (bps) ratin!s used for most computer and
consumer communications applications and devices,
such as modems, but in some en!ineered situations
several bits can be transmitted within one si!nal pulse,
so bps ratin!s can be hi!her than baud rates.
