Abstract: A fundamental goal of physical layer digital communication system design is transmission of the data signal through the system with minimum distortion. In order to accomplish this goal, it is imperative to match (as closely as possible) the system bandwidth to the bandwidth requirements of the data. The purpose of this application note is to analyze the bandwidth required for effective transmission of nonreturn-to-zero (NRZ) encoded data. The application note you have requested is available in Acrobat PDF format: APPLICATION NOTE 870: HFAN-09.0.1: NRZ Bandwidth - HF Cutoff vs. SNR (PDF, 42kB) A free Acrobat PDF reader is available from: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html We Want Your Feedback!
