A coder is specified as follows.

ParameterValue
Sampling rate8 kHz
Word length8 bits
CompandingA-law

Which figure does the companding chiefly affect?

  • A.The bit rate the channel is required to carry
  • B.The highest signal frequency the coder can accept
  • C.The number of channels that can share one frame
  • D.The ratio achieved on quiet passages

Answer: D

Companding redistributes the eight bits so that small signals get finer steps, which improves the ratio on quiet passages without touching the bit rate, the bandwidth limit or the frame capacity - those follow from the sampling rate and word length alone. Reading a specification table means asking which line each other line depends on, and here the companding line stands apart from the two that set the rate.
