D)channel capacity

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The rate in bits per second at which data can be communicated is known as the data rate. This is the maximum amount of bits that can be transmitted over a given channel in one second. Therefore, option B is the correct answer. Analog and digital transmission refer to the methods used for transmitting data, and channel capacity refers to the maximum capacity of a communication channel to carry data, but none of them represent the data rate itself.
