Each character in the alphabet is represented by a series of five bits, sent over a communication channel such as a telegraph wire or a radio signal by asynchronous serial communication.

How many bits are there in Baudot code?
Baudot is a five-bit binary code. Originally used in wireless telegraphy as a replacement for Morse Code.
How many symbols are in Baudot code?
The Baudot code or International Teleprinter Code was invented by Emile Baudot in 1870. It is binary code which uses crosses and dots. It was used for teleprinter messages instead of the morse code and allowed to encode 2^5=32 characters efficiently.
How does Baudot code work?
Baudot is a fixed length code of 5 bits, as opposed to Morse's variable length code. Morse has a separate code for each characters while Baudot uses “shift' codes to change between alphabet and figure characters. For instance, a binary 11 would represent either an 'A' or a '-' depending on the shift state.
How do you write a Baudot code?
Example: Encode the message IA2 BAUDOT with a machine using the international telegraphic alphabet no. 2 (the most widespread). Example: the coded message is then 00110 00011 11011 10011 11111 11001 00011 00111 01001 11000 10000 .
