Digital Signal Concepts and Levels

The video tutorial explains digital signals, contrasting them with analog signals. It describes how digital signals can be represented using different voltage levels, with examples of encoding bits as high or low voltage. The tutorial covers the concept of bit rate, demonstrating how eight bits per second equate to a bit rate of 8 bps. It further explores grouping bits to create multiple signal levels, allowing for more complex data representation. The video concludes with a summary of digital signal representation.

What is a digital signal typically represented by?

• Magnetic fields

• Voltage levels
