Phase shift keying (PSK.) method is used to modulate digital signals at 9600 bps using 16 levels. The line signals speed (i.e. modulation rate) will be

  • A.2400 bands
  • B.1200 bands
  • C.4800 bands
  • D.9600 bands

Answer: A

Correct answer: 2400 bands

Sixteen levels carry \( \log_{2}16 = 4 \) bits per symbol, so

\[ \text{baud} = \frac{9600}{4} = 2400 \]

The baud rate is the symbol rate; it equals the bit rate only when each symbol carries one bit.
