Bandwidth speeds

Loni Rosser
 
These new phones download 29 Mbps & upload 11 mbps. Can someone explain what that means?
 
Also how would that be giving me such life threatening reactions? Trying to get a clearer picture before I start screaming about it.

That means they download data REALLY FAST.  Fast enough to watch an HDTV movie without any
waiting for data...

What does that do to the signal? More powerful? Does it arc or spike?
 
Thanks Marc !   Loni

I think it has more to do with the content being filled with more data
bits, that cycle between 0 and 1 rapidly.

If the analogy is correct that analog RF is like a strong wind, up to
hurricane for higher Watts being pumped out. And Digital RF is like a
jackhammer, which one would cause the more damage?

Imagine a field of grass blowing in the wind. It bends, but does not break.
Then subject the same field to winds that alternate back and forth at 10
times per second.
How much breakage can you imagine?

Then up the frequency to 700 MHz, millions if not hundreds of millions
of pulses per second. This is (likely) the mechanism that breaks DNA.

This is why digital is worse than analog.

Thanks Stewart;
 
Very interesting analogy. I liked it. Loni
