What is analog signals An analog signal is any continuous signal for which the time varying feature (variable) of the signal is a representation of some other time varying quantity, i.e., analogous to another time varying signal. For example, in an analog audio signal, the instantaneous voltage of the signal varies continuously with the pressure of the sound waves.

Shamsul Arifin, EEE, CUET Advantages of analog signals ❑ You can rectify faulty components easily. ❑ Easy to manipulate using mathematical formations and calculation. ❑ Great lifespan. ❑ Ambient weather dependencies are low. ❑ Easy to handle not expensive, over sensitive routings. ❑ less sensitive in the terms of electrical tolerance. ❑ Analog technology records wave forms, as they are continuous range of values to represent information. Hence more accurate. ❑ Analog signal processing can be done in real time and consumes less bandwidth. ❑ Low cost and portable. ❑ Processing speed is high and no need to have clock in system.
Disadvantages of analog signals ❑Not easy to implement. ❑Not easy to transmit, as it needs perfect receiver and transmitter for specific communication scenario. ❑No security for transmission data. ❑Can't be saved and transmit under urgency.
