Sami Al-Wakeel Data Transmission and Computer Networks The Physical Layer Continuous Signal No break or discontinuities in a signal. Example: Speech. A signal is continuous if: Discrete Signal A discrete signal takes on only a finite number of values. Example: binary 1s and 0s. Definitions Definitions Cosine wave: If the phase shift of a sine wave is –90 degrees (-p/2 radian), the same signal can be expressed as a cosine wave instead of sine wave. Definitions Amplitude: The amplitude is the instantaneous value of a signal at any time. Frequency: The Frequency is the inver
