Download Solution PDFConcept:
The number of levels for an n-bit PCM system is given by:
L = 2n
Also, the bandwidth of PCM is given by:
\(BW=n{f_s}\)
n = number of bits to encode
fs = sampling frequency
Calculation:
For n = 8, the bandwidth will be:
B.W. = 8 fs
Similarly, For n = 16, the bandwidth will be:
B.W. = 16 fs
We observe that the Bandwidth is increased by 2 times.
