  2. Channel capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_capacity

    Channel capacity, in electrical engineering, computer science, and information theory, is the theoretical maximum rate at which information can be reliably transmitted over a communication channel.

  3. Shannon–Hartley theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shannon–Hartley_theorem

    What is the channel capacity for a signal having a 1 MHz bandwidth, received with a SNR of −30 dB ? That means a signal deeply buried in noise. −30 dB means a S/N = 10 −3. It leads to a maximal rate of information of 10 6 log 2 (1 + 10 −3) = 1443 bit/s. These values are typical of the received ranging signals of the GPS, where the ...

  4. Network throughput - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_throughput

    The system throughput or aggregate throughput is the sum of the data rates that are delivered over all ... This corresponds to a maximum channel utilization of 1526 ...

  5. Noisy-channel coding theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noisy-channel_coding_theorem

    In information theory, the noisy-channel coding theorem (sometimes Shannon's theorem or Shannon's limit), establishes that for any given degree of noise contamination of a communication channel, it is possible (in theory) to communicate discrete data (digital information) nearly error-free up to a computable maximum rate through the channel.

  6. IEEE 802.11n-2009 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11n-2009

    The purpose of the standard is to improve network throughput over the two previous standards—802.11a and 802.11g—with a significant increase in the maximum net data rate from 54 Mbit/s to 72 Mbit/s with a single spatial stream in a 20 MHz channel, and 600 Mbit/s (slightly higher gross bit rate including for example error-correction codes ...

  7. List of interface bit rates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_interface_bit_rates

    For instance, SATA revision 3.0 (6 Gbit/s) controllers on one PCI Express 2.0 (5 Gbit/s) channel will be limited to the 5 Gbit/s rate and have to employ more channels to get around this problem. Early implementations of new protocols very often have this kind of problem.

  8. IEEE 802.11a-1999 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11a-1999

    It was ratified in 1999. The 802.11a standard uses the same core protocol as the original standard, operates in 5 GHz band, and uses a 52-subcarrier orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) with a maximum raw data rate of 54 Mbit/s, which yields realistic net achievable throughput in the mid-20 Mbit/s. The data rate is reduced to 48 ...

  9. Bandwidth (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bandwidth_(computing)

    The consumed bandwidth in bit/s, corresponds to achieved throughput or goodput, i.e., the average rate of successful data transfer through a communication path.The consumed bandwidth can be affected by technologies such as bandwidth shaping, bandwidth management, bandwidth throttling, bandwidth cap, bandwidth allocation (for example bandwidth allocation protocol and dynamic bandwidth ...
