Baseband Transmission – sending signal over a
channel without modulation or without digital-to- Latency (Delay) – the time it takes for an entire
analog signal conversion. message to completely arrive at the destination

“a digital signal is a composite analog signal with an
infinite bandwidth” 𝐿𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑐𝑦 = 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑝𝑎𝑔𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒 + 𝑡𝑟𝑎𝑛𝑠𝑚𝑖𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒
+ 𝑞𝑢𝑒𝑢𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒 + 𝑝𝑟𝑜𝑐𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒
Broadband Transmission – sending a modulated
signal (digital-to-analog) over a channel. Bandwidth-Delay Product – the number of bits that
can fill the link
Jitter – the difference in packets delays
4. Data Rate Limits
Three factors that affect the data rate:
bandwidth available
level of signals used
quality of the channel (level of noise)
