Though we, as people, can interpret digital signals (if we train ourselves to do it - like Morse Code), we do better with analog signals. Music and speech as well as most other sound is analog. We interpret analog audio signals almost instantly, and without even thinking about it. Without analog signals, most of our listening activities are for nothing. Let's take sound to the electronics forum. Electronically, a digital signal requires that we convert our analog signal to a digital one in an audio-to-digital converter (AtoD). And we have to convert it back at the other end. We can do all this, but it takes extra stages and effort to make it happen. Certainly it's the only way we can move all the signals we need to move, like with cell phone traffic. Without digital techniques, we'd be dead in the water trying to serve all the cellular customers we serve, but voice traffic starts and ends as analog signals 'cause we human critters can relate to them better.
An advantage to keeping analog devices is that they will still work if there is ever a nuclear attack on a city. Digital signals rely on radio waves that will be destroyed in the case of nuclear attack.
It is simpler No coding and Decoding problem.
It require only easy demodulation and modulation circuitry
Process is inexpensive and low transmission and reception cost
occupy lower bandwidth as compared to digital communication.
The advantage of analog signal is that is has higher density compared to digital signal. It has the potential for an infinite amount of signal resolution.
Advantages of Analogue include: uses less bandwidth and more accurate. Analogue is a transmission standard that applies electrical impulses to mimic the audio waveform of sound.
An DAC convert digital signal to analog signal i.e Digital to Analog Converter. An ADC convert analog signal to digital signal i.e Analog to Digital Converter.
The basic elements in digital signal processing are an analog to digital converter, digital signal processor, and digital to analog converter. This process can take an analog input signal, convert it to digital for processing and offer an analog output.
The analog signal is converted to discrete signal. Even after the conversion, the frequency of the actual signal still remains the same. If the frequency of the discrete signal is different from the analog signal, the reconstructed signal would be different again. This is not what we expect. So base spectrum for similar signals have same frequencies, whether they are discrete or analog. Why do the repetitions occur? The original analog signal is multiplied with a dirac pattern. The base frequency is then shifted to the places, where diracs are available. So long the diracs keep repeating, the base frequency do repeats. Hope you are convinced with my answer
1)digital modulation can easily detect and correct the noise. where as analog modulation has little complexity 2)security is more in digital modulation 3)digital modulated signal can traverse a long distance compared to analog modulation
we often confuse our-self with continuous time and analog signals. An analog signal is a signal which can take any amplitude in continuous range that is signal amplitude can take infinite values on the other hand a digital signal is one whose amplitude can take only finite numbers of values THE TERM CONTINUOUS SIGNAL AND DISCRETE SIGNAL CLASSIFY THE SIGNALS ALONG THE TIME (i.e. horizontal axis) where as THE TERM ANALOG AND DIGITAL SIGNAL CLASSIFY THE SIGNAL ALONG THE AMPLITUDE (i.e vertical axis)
The advantages of digital radio over analog radio are digital radios get more channels than analog, they are clearer in sound and signal and have more additional features.
Analog Modulation
1-What are the advantages of sampling analog signals?2-what are the following terms mean : instantaneous Sampling , Natural Sampling , and Flat-top Sampling ?3- what are the advantages of digital communication over analog communication ?4-Explain the reason for making the sampling frequency greater than or equal to (2B)Hz , where B is the bandwidth of the analog signal
An DAC convert digital signal to analog signal i.e Digital to Analog Converter. An ADC convert analog signal to digital signal i.e Analog to Digital Converter.
When you convert digital signal to analog, it is called as an analog signal. The device used is called digital to analog converter.
Digital signal processing is the best compared to analog signal. It is because the digital signal is moreefficienterror freeimmune to noisethan an analog signal
There are four possible combinations of encoding techniques -Digital data, digital signal -Digital data, analog signal -Analog data, digital signal -Analog data, analog signal
A video uses the analog signal
The input to the earphones is a a analog signal i.e., electrically generated analog signal.
An analog signal is a continuous signal that contains time-varying quantities. Unlike a digital signal, which has a discrete value at each sampling point, an analog signal has constant fluctuations. netonplus.com

where an analog signal is to be converted into digital signal,because in some applications we need digital signal where we have analog signal that is we use an A/D converter
