Kbps, also known as bit rate, refers to the transmission rate of digital signals, that is, how many kilobits of information are transmitted per second (K represents kilobits, and Kb represents how many kilobits); Kbps can also represent the transmission speed of the network. In order to intuitively show that the transmission speed of the network is faster, companies generally use kb (thousand bits) to express it. If it is KBps, it means how many kilobytes are transmitted per second. 1KByte/s=8Kbps (generally abbreviated as 1KBps=8Kbps). The speed of ADSL Internet access is 512Kbps. If converted into bytes, it is 512/8=64KByte (that is, 64 kilobytes per second).
People often use Kbps to describe the auditory effect of audio. In WINDOWS it is called "bit speed", and in some players it is also called "bit rate".
Sound quality refers to the sampling rate for converting digital sound from analog format to digital format. The higher the sampling rate, the better the restored sound quality.
16Kbps=Telephone sound quality
24Kbps=Increase telephone sound quality, shortwave broadcasting, longwave broadcasting, European standard medium wave broadcasting
40Kbps=American standard medium wave broadcasting< /p>
56Kbps=voice
64Kbps=increase the best bit rate (Kbps) setting value for voice, mobile phone ringtones, and the best setting value for mobile phone mono MP3 player
112Kbps=FM stereo broadcast
128Kbps=The best setting value for tapes and mobile phone stereo MP3 players, the best setting value for low-end MP3 players
192Kbps=Mid-range The best settings for MP3 players
320Kbps=The best settings for high-end MP3 players (the highest bit rate in MP3 format)
550Kbps~16384Kbps=Studio music studio ( Suitable for music enthusiasts)
In fact, with the advancement of technology, the quality of music is getting higher and higher. The highest quality of MP3 format is 320Kbps, but some other formats can achieve higher quality and higher sound quality. For example, the emerging APE and FLAC audio formats can provide true audiophile-level lossless sound quality and a smaller size than the WAV format, and their bit rates are usually 550kbps~16384kbps.
