QUESTION 22 OF 30

Please describe bit rate & baud rate, how they differ, and how the baud rate formula works.

Some technical terms are so similar they can become confusing. Interviewers know this will ask you about similar terms to better gauge your knowledge and understanding of the terms in question. This is another question that provides the interviewer an example of your communication skills and how well you can describe complex technical terms to people with nontechnical backgrounds.

When asked to compare two similar but different technical terms, start by defining each term. Then discuss their similarities and differences. You may also want to include an example that illustrates your answer. As with any technical question, keep your answers as brief and to the point as possible and anticipate follow-up questions from the interviewer.

"Bit rate is a measure of the number of data bits transmitted in one second in a communication channel. Baud rate is the number of times a signal in a communication channel changes state. The formula used to calculate the baud rate is Baud Gross Bit Rate / Number of Bits per Symbol."
