Calculate the bit rate for a signal that is sampled 8000 times per second and has 16 quantization levels.

The blue check mark means that this solution has been answered and checked by an expert. This guarantees that the final answer is accurate.

Since 2^{4}=16, we have four bits per sample and so the bit rate is

8000 \times 4=32000 \text { bit s }^{-1}=32 \text { kbit s } ^{-1}

The duration of one bit is

\frac{1}{32000}=3.1 \times 10^{-5} s =31 \mu s
