Nyquist states that the bit rate of a noise-free digital transmission can be no more than one-half the bandwidth of the signal.

a) True b) False

Answer: False

Explanation:

Nyquist states that the bit rate of a noise-free digital transmission is shown by

C = 2 B log2 m bits/sec

where,

C is the channel capacity

B is the bandwidth of the channel

and m is the number of discrete levels in the signal
