Well analog is usually used to carry sound so amplifying the analog signal would make it louder.

Are the modem and the codec functional inverses ie could an inverted modem?

No, the modem and codec are not exactly the functional inverse of each other. teh modem converts the digital data to analog signal by teh modulating part of it. teh demodulating part of the modem can be used to covert teh ANALOG SIGNAL to digital data....but this analog signal will be modulated analog signal. the coding part of teh codec convert teh analog signals to teh digital signal .these analog signals are pure analog signals. Hence teh codec and modem may seem as functional inverses but do not work as so due to teh fact dat the demodulating part of the modem used only the modulated analog signal and cannot process the pure analog signals .


What is different about the method used to boost digital signal strength compared to the method used to boost analog signal strength?

A digital signal requires a repeater, which retransmits the signal in its original form, and an analog signal requires an amplifier, which increases the strength of both the signal and the noise it has accumulated.


How did the modem get its name?

To send digital across an analog wire the signal is first laid on top of an analog signal. The process is called "modulation". It's the same thing that's done with television and radio, it's just a different type of signal.The modulated signal is sent across the wire and the MODEM at the other end receives the signal and decodes it.The process is called, "MOdulate, DEModulate, or more simply, MODEM.


Why is digital technology preferred to analog technology in communications technology?

Why digital communications and what its advantages over analog communication ,first you have to know what is the difference between analog signal and digital signal. Analog signal analog signal is continuous time signal i.e. it has a value at any moment of time and it has infinite number of valus , such as dinusoidal signal ,you can substitute X with any value and you will have an value in Y in the follwing sin relation Y=sin(X). 1-Noise and destortion immunity:-when analog signal is transmitted in free space for long distances it will be distorted and no an ideal recovery done in receiver to recover the exact signal which transmitted ,but in digital communication digital signal consist of 2 levels only zero or one (not like the analog one , it has infinite numbers of values or levels at each period of time),so digital signal can be recovered easily and excactly like transmitted one. Hint : Device that used to pattially recover the analog signal after a certain distance is called repeater ,from its name it receives transmitted analog signal and filter it and amplify it and transmitt it),but in digital transmission it is different ,the device used for recovering digital signal which transmitted from acertain distance is called regenerative repeaters ,it receives transmitted digital signal and recover it to regenrate a new exact signal like received one then retransmitt it for further distance. 2-More privacy and security due to encryption. 3-Error detection techniques can be used and correction as well. 4-Easy for processing and applying multiplexing techniques. 5-Low cost. 6-Transmission rate can be changed easily. 7-Digital hardware implementation is flexible and permits the use of micrprocessors, digital switching elements and layer scale.

What is the term for a device that converts digital data from a computer into analog signals and back again?

The devices are known very simply as analog to digital converters and digital to analog converters. They are frequently shorted to A-D and D-A converters. A complete analog to digital converter will not only convert the analog signal into a set of numbers, it will also format the digital data ready to deliver to the next step in the signal chain. In television, this means generating a fairly complex stream of data that will carry not only the picture but audio and other data as well. Digital to analog converters reverse the process and use the incoming data to generate an analog signal. In television, well know examples are the digital set top boxes. They receive digital data from an antenna and convert the numbers into analog audio and video signals.

What is 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 should analog to digital converter be placed?

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
