== Transmission and storage ==
After line coding, the signal is put through a physical communication channel, either a [[transmission medium]] or [[data storage medium]].<ref name="paulsen">Karl Paulsen.

* the line-coded signal can directly be put on a [[transmission line]], in the form of variations of the voltage or current (often using [[differential signaling]]).
* the line-coded signal (the "[[baseband]] signal") undergoes further [[pulse shaping]] (to reduce its frequency bandwidth) and then [[modulation|modulated]] (to shift its frequency) to create an "[[RF signal]]" that can be sent through free space.

== Disparity ==
Most long-distance communication channels cannot reliably transport a [[DC component]]. The DC component is also called the ''disparity'', the ''bias'', or the [[DC coefficient]]. The disparity of a bit pattern is the difference in the number of one bits vs the number of zero bits. The ''running disparity'' is the [[running total]] of the disparity of all previously transmitted bits.<ref>{{cite paperdocument |author=Jens Kröger |url=https://www.psi.ch/mu3e/ThesesEN/BachelorKroeger.pdf |title=Data Transmission at High Rates via Kapton Flexprints for the Mu3e Experiment |date=2014 |page=16}}</ref> The simplest possible line code, [[Unipolar encoding|unipolar]], gives too many errors on such systems, because it has an unbounded DC component.
 
Most line codes eliminate the DC component{{snd}} such codes are called [[DC-balanced]], zero-DC, or DC-free. There are three ways of eliminating the DC component:

== Other considerations ==
A line code will typically reflect technical requirements of the transmission medium, such as [[optical fiber]] or [[shielded twisted pair]]. These requirements are unique for each medium, because each one has different behavior related to interference, distortion, capacitance and loss of amplitude.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=On_Hh23IXDUC&pg=PA284&lpg=PA284 |title=Network Dictionary |last=Dong |first=Jielin |date=2007 |publisher=Javvin Technologies Inc. |isbn=9781602670006 |language=en |page=284}}</ref>
