Question
The primary advantage of digital communication over analog is:
- AAlways lower bandwidth
- BBetter noise immunity and regeneration (no noise accumulation)Correct
- CNo need for modulation
- DLower transmitter power in all cases
Correct answer
Better noise immunity and regeneration (no noise accumulation)
Explanation
Digital signals can be regenerated — noisy 0s and 1s are detected and retransmitted as clean pulses. Analog amplifiers amplify noise along with the signal. Digital also enables error correction, encryption, and compression.
