Question 1

Consider a noiseless channel with bandwidth B = 10Khz. We want to transmit a binary signal over this channel. What is the maximum data rate achievable? Explicitly mention the theorem and the calculation that lead to the solution.

Question 2

Consider a house in rural Italy that access the internet using ADSL (bandwidth B = 1Mhz). The line has been ruined by rats, so the signal to noise ratio is S/N = 15 dB. What is the maximum data rate achievable? Explicitly mention the theorem and the calculation that lead to the solution.
