How is Shannon capacity calculated?
If the requirement is to transmit at 5 mbit/s, and a bandwidth of 1 MHz is used, then the minimum S/N required is given by 5000 = 1000 log2(1+S/N) so C/B = 5 then S/N = 25 −1 = 31, corresponding to an SNR of 14.91 dB (10 x log10(31)).
What is the formula for Shannon capacity in bps?
At a SNR of 0 dB (Signal power = Noise power) the Capacity in bits/s is equal to the bandwidth in hertz. If the SNR is 20 dB, and the bandwidth available is 4 kHz, which is appropriate for telephone communications, then C = 4000 log2(1 + 100) = 4000 log2 (101) = 26.63 kbit/s.
Why is Shannon capacity calculated?
The Shannon capacity theorem defines the maximum amount of information, or data capacity, which can be sent over any channel or medium (wireless, coax, twister pair, fiber etc.). What this says is that higher the signal-to-noise (SNR) ratio and more the channel bandwidth, the higher the possible data rate.
What is the formula of channel capacity?
C = S η log2 e = 1.44 S η . This gives the maximum information transmission rate possible for a system of given power but no bandwidth limitations.
