- Published on 16 Jun 15

a. Same as the band rate
b. half of the band rate
c. Twice the band rate
d. None of these

ANSWER: half of the band rate
 
In manchester encoding, 2 signals changes to represent a bit. So the band rate (no of signal/sec)=2*bit rate (no of bits/sec). Hence, bit rate is half of the band rate.
