Explanation: The baud rate is a term that is especially used in the field of telecommunications to refer to the number of signal changes or symbols that are conveyed in one second. There is a connection between baud rate and data rate; however, the two are not necessarily the same. Data rate takes into account the amount of information that is represented by each signal change.
