Although a given waveform may contain frequencies over a very broad range, as a practical matter any transmission system will be able to accommodate only a limited band of(  ).This, in turn,limits the data rate that can be carried on the transmission(  ). A square wave has an infinite number of frequency components and hence an infinite (  ).However, the peak amplitude of the kth frequency component, kf, is only 1/k, so most of the(  )in this waveform is in the first few frequency components. In general, any digital waveform will have(  )bandwidth. If we attempt to transmit this waveform as a signalover any medium, the transmission system will limit the bandwidth that can be transmitted.
