Manchester encoding places one transition in every bit, so a 1 megabit per second data rate requires a signalling bandwidth of at least
Answer: B
Correct answer: 1 megahertz
Manchester encoding places a transition at the middle of every bit, and a run of identical bits also produces transitions at the bit boundaries. The highest fundamental frequency therefore equals the bit rate: 1 MHz for 1 Mbit/s.
That is the cost of the scheme - twice the bandwidth of a simple non-return-to-zero code carrying the same data. It buys clock recovery from the data itself and a signal with no DC component, which is what allows the transformer coupling MIL-STD-1553 depends on.
