Find the optimum with random bit errors by taking the derivative and setting it to zero...
In the last module you learned a formula for calculating bit rate, R = b/t, that is the number of bits divided by the time. This formula expresses the number of bits that are transmitted over a circuit in a given period of time. In practice, however, we are not only concerned with the number bits transmitted, but also with the number of data bits transmitted over a circuit. The data bits are those that the sender decides to send...
