Number of Bits per Symbol Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Number of Bits per Symbol = Bit Rate/Symbol Rate
B_sym = B_rate/S_rate
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Number of Bits per Symbol - (Measured in Bit) - Number of bits per symbol refers to the number of binary bits that are represented by a single symbol transmitted over the wireless channel.
Bit Rate - (Measured in Bit Per Second) - Bit Rate refers to the rate at which bits (binary digits) are transmitted or processed over a communication channel or in a digital data stream.
Symbol Rate - (Measured in Baud) - Symbol Rate refers to the rate at which symbols (distinct, discrete values or levels) are transmitted in a communication channel.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Bit Rate: 7 Bit Per Second --> 7 Bit Per Second No Conversion Required
Symbol Rate: 0.87 Symbols per Second --> 0.87 Baud (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

B_sym = B_rate/S_rate --> 7/0.87

Evaluating ... ...

B_sym = 8.04597701149425

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

8.04597701149425 Bit --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

8.04597701149425 ≈ 8.045977 Bit <-- Number of Bits per Symbol
