Waveform Coding - Refers to the electrical techniques used to convey binary signals. In digital communication equipment, internal signals are typically bipolar, with either 100 percent (NRZ) or a 50 percent (RZ) duty cycle. On the external interface, digital waveform coding (line coding) must be suitable for the application and the distance to be traveled.
