  • Engineering helped make this video possible. This week we’ll look at how it’s possible for you to watch this video with the fundamentals of signal processing. We’ll explore things from Morse Code, to problems like bandwidth capacity and noise, to how we arrived at the digital age.
    Crash Course Engineering is produced in association with PBS Digital Studios: • All PBS Digital Studio...

    I think this video picks a fine analogy for bandwidth and noise with the pipes and flowing water, but explains it poorly. Especially when the discussion of Shannon's limit comes in. It's a simple analogy: bandwidth is the size of your pipe but noise is how clogged that pipe is. A big pipe that's really clogged (high bandwidth, but high noise) may not transmit more water (data) than a small pipe that's squeaky clean (low bandwidth, low noise).
    I don't think that their analogy where it showed a large pipe making a clear picture but the small pipe making a noisy picture explained this well.
    I also think they could have made it clearer that Shannon's equation gives the limit of how much data you can send given a certain bandwidth and signal to noise ratio, but not a guarantee. It's signal processing researchers and engineers that create methods of communication that approach that limit for different applications. They don't seem to draw the right lines between signal processing and computer engineering, since once the internet enters your computer the signal processing part is basically over and it's hardware and computer engineering from then on out.

    *_...one of the most-bizarre effects of 'information theory' is that frequent not-using the band is, the data-bit information, e.g. if data results in signal modulation '00' or '11' then only half-the-bandwidth is being used for those instants, and that's statistically 50% of the time, and further '000' or '111' is even less-use, etc...._*

    - signals are represantion of the information we're sending
    - communication is sending and receiving of signals
    - An input transducer converts the sound and light into electrical signals from the camera and microphone

    If you ever wanted to learn DSP but the rigorous math in many other books turns you off, get this book : The Scientist and Engineer's Guide to Digital Signal Processing By Steven W. Smith, Ph.D. You can read it online for free (dspguide.com). I found DSP quite overwhelming too as a CS undergraduate, but the author did a great job explaining many concepts with just enough math I needed to implement into a program.

      Breaks in the wire, and bad connections at the end. Also if an amplifier on a line goes bad it can distort the clean incoming signal.
