Kids Encyclopedia Facts

Symbol rate (also called baud rate and modulation rate) is the number of symbols that happen each second. The name "baud rate" comes from Émile Baudot, the person who invented the Baudot code.

'Symbol' in this sense means something like 'basic signal event'. The word symbol usually has a much wider meaning.
