What is a spectrum in signal?

The signal spectrum describes a signal’s magnitude and phase characteristics as a function of frequency . The system spectrum describes how the system changes signal magnitude and phase as a function of frequency. For example, Figure 6.6 shows the magnitude and phase spectra of some hypothetical system.

Is signal the same as frequency?

The frequency of a signal defines the total number of complete cycles of a waveform that are existing per sec. While bandwidth is the range of frequency of signal while transmission thus shows its capacity of data flow. The frequency of a signal is specified as cycles/second .
