True
False
Pulse modulation is consists essentially of sampling analog information signals and then converting those samples into discrete pulses and transporting the pulses from a source to a destination over a physical transmission medium.
True
False
If an obstacle appears between a transmitter and receiver, some of the signal is blocked, creating what is known as a shadow zone.

What are the disadvantages of digital transmission
Digital transmission systems are incompatible with older analog transmission systems.
Better suited than analog signals for processing and combining.
Transmission errors can be detected and corrected more easily and more accurately than analog signals.
Analog signals must be converted to digital pulses prior to transmission and converted back to their original analog form at the receiver.
The process of changing a binary pulse signal to represent the information to be transmitted.
Pulse modulation
Frequency modulation
Digital transmission
Digital Signal
What are the advantages of digital transmission
Less susceptible than analog signals to interference caused by noise, for the reason that pulses in a digital transmission are evaluated during a precise time interval.
Can be transported longer distances than analog signals.
The transmission of digitally encoded analog signals requires significantly more bandwidth than simply transmitting the original analog signal.
More resistant to analog systems to additive noise due to signal regeneration.
Pulses are then sent by either wire or cable, or else are used to modulate a carrier.
PAM
PWM
PPM
PCM
Pulses are of fixed length and fixed amplitude.
