Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Encoding refers to the process of converting data into a particular format for transmission or storage, not necessarily to formatting frames or packets to the same size. It involves transforming information into signals that can be transmitted over a communication medium or stored. Formatting frames or packets to the same size is a different concept related to data packaging rather than encoding.
