Noise
Internal noise
Caused by internal devices/components in the circuits.
External noise
noise that is generated outside the circuit.
E.g. atmospheric noise, solar noise, cosmic noise, man made
noise.
• Interference
Contamination by extraneous signals from human sources.
E.g. from other transmitters, power lines and machineries.
Occurs most often in radio systems whose receiving antennas
usually intercept several signals at the same time
One type of noise.
• Distortion
Signals or waves perturbation caused by imperfect response of
the system to the desired signal itself.
May be corrected or reduced with the help of equalizers.

(a) Input Signal-to-Noise ratio (dB).
S/N (dB) = 10 log (2.5 x 10-10 / 3 x 10-18) =79.2 dB
