Question

A new Mars rover is being designed that will send signals between the

rover on Mars and a control station on Earth. The engineers working on the
rover are concerned about interference from electrical events in Earth's
atmosphere.
To address this concern, should the rover send analog or digital signals?
Choose 1 answer:
A Analog; the interference won't change an analog signal.
Analog; analog signals can be designed to minimize the effect of
interference.
B
Digital; digital signals are not affected by the interference.
Digital; digital signals can be designed to minimize the effect of
interference.

Answer 1

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The appropriate choice to address the concern of interference from Earth's atmosphere would be:

B. Digital; digital signals can be designed to minimize the effect of interference.

• Digital signals are less susceptible to interference compared to analog signals. They can be encoded and designed with error correction techniques to ensure accurate transmission and reception of data, even in the presence of interference. This makes digital signals much more suitable for long range communication.
