Is there any tradeoff between voice quality and bandwidth, how?

Answer Posted / syncopator

Yes there is.

The narrower the bandwidth, the less information which can be carried.

The opposite being true - the wider the bandwidth, the more information can be carried.

Take, as an example, an a.m. broadcast station. Frequency separation between channels is, in the U.S.A., 10kHz, and in the U.K. 9kHz.

The maximum bandwidth transmitted must not exceed 10kHz or 9kHz, depending on the country.

For a 10kHz bandwidth, that of each sideband must not exceed 5kHz, or 4.5kHz in the case of 9kHz channel spacing. In practice the actual bandwidth is a little narrower to prevent one station interfering with another.

This means that the maximum audio frequency which an a.m. broadcast station can transmit is either 4.5kHz or 4kHz depending on the channel separation.

Now consider television transmissions. There is obviously a lot more information to carry and the bandwidth must therefore be much wider.

Alok and Bhanu play the following min-max game. Given the expression N = 9 + X + Y - Z Where X, Y and Z are variables representing single digits (0 to 9), Alok would like to maximize N while Bhanu would like to minimize it. Towards this end, Alok chooses a single digit number and Bhanu substitutes this for a variable of her choice (X, Y or Z). Alok then chooses the next value and Bhanu, the variable to substitute the value. Finally Alok proposes the value for the remaining variable. Assuming both play to their optimal strategies, the value of N at the end of the game would be 27 0.0 20 18
