Bit rate, baud rate, bandwidth and latency

Bit rate, baud rate, bandwidth and latency

1. Bit rate

   • How many bits can be sent per second

2. Bandwidth

   • The range of signal frequencies that can be transmitted

3. baud rate

   • The rate at which signals on a wire or line may change

4. Greater the bandwidth, the higher the bit rate

5. latency

   • Time delay between signal being transmitted and arriving
