Noise Pollution Noise pollution is not a necessary price to pay for living in an industrial society. Much can be done to reduce the severity of the problem. For example‚ vehicles and other machines can be built to produce less noise. Four-cycle engines can replace much noisier two-cycle engines in such products as lawnmowers‚ motorboats‚ and jet skis. Labels that indicate the noise levels of appliances and tools can help consumers avoid noisy products and choose quieter alternatives. Even

Figure 1.1 illustrates discrete data transmission‚ which is the transmission of one message from a finite set of messages through a communication channel. A message sender at the transmitter communicates with a message receiver. The sender selects one message from the finite set‚ and the transmitter sends a corresponding signal (or “waveform”) that represents this message through the communication channel. The receiver decides the message sent by observing the channel output. Successive transmission
