In a digital transmission, the receiver clock is 0.1 percent faster than the sender clock. How many extra bits per second does the receiver receive if the data rate is 1 Mbps?
  1. A10 bps
  2. B100 bps
  3. C1000 bps
  4. D10000 bps
Show answerHide answer

Correct answer: (C) 1000 bps

Explanation

At 1 Mbps the sender sends 1,000,000 bits per second. The receiver clock is 0.1% faster, so the extra bits received = 1,000,000 × 0.1/100 = 1000 bits, i.e. the receiver receives 1,001,000 bits per second. Extra bits per second = 1000 bps. Hence option (c) is correct.
