Bitrates

Another piece of work that the class had to submit were different types of network items or casualties. Mine were to collect ideas about Bit rates and present them to the class. My presentation consists of how there is an abbreviation for bit rates which is Bps or bits per second or as the variable R. Basically, bit rates is the amount bits per second transmitted along a digital network.              

Here is the link to my prezi in which I explained what bit rates are and where they come into use.

BITRATES IN VIDEO FILES

Remember that 1 byte consists of 8 bits. Video data rates are given in bits per second. The data rate for a video file is the bitrate. So a data rate specification for video content that runs at 1 megabyte per second would be given as a bitrate of 8 megabits per second (8 mbps). The bitrate for an HD Blu-ray video is typically in the range of 20 mbps, standard-definition DVD is usually 6 mbps, high-quality web video often runs at about 2 mbps, and video for phones is typically given in the kilobits (kbps). For example, these are the targets we usually see for H.264 streaming:

LD 240p 3G Mobile @ H.264 baseline profile 350 kbps (3 MB/minute)
LD 360p 4G Mobile @ H.264 main profile 700 kbps (6 MB/minute)
SD 480p WiFi @ H.264 main profile 1200 kbps (10 MB/minute)
HD 720p @ H.264 high profile 2500 kbps (20 MB/minute)
HD 1080p @ H.264 high profile 5000 kbps (35 MB/minute)
