bandwidth efficiency

Bandwidth efficiency refers to how effectively data is transmitted over an internet connection or network. It measures the amount of useful information (data) sent relative to the total capacity of the connection (bandwidth). Higher efficiency means more data can be delivered in less time without unnecessary wastage of network resources. This is important for improving speeds, reducing delays, and making the best use of available network capacity, especially in situations with limited bandwidth. In essence, it’s about maximizing data transfer while minimizing wasted or redundant information.
