A microprocessor incorporates most or all of the functions of a computer's central processing units on a single IC, or microchip. The first microprocessors emerged in the early 1970s and were used for electronic calculators using binary-coded decimal (BCD) arithmetic in 4-bit words. Other embedded uses of 4-bit and 8-bit microprocessors, such as terminals, printers, various kinds of automation etc., followed soon after. Affordable 8-bit microprocessors with 16-bit addressing also led to the first general-purpose microcomputers from the mid-1970s on.

They seem to be the same thing. Such a device is a protective relay. It uses a microprocessor to analyze power system voltages, currents or other process quantities for the purpose of detecting faults in an industrial process system.
Analog and digital signals can both be transmitted wirelessly. Wireless internet (Wi-Fi), for instance, uses digital. AM and FM Radio uses analog. Cell phones are digital. Cordless phones can be digital or analog.
There are many different advantages of a microprocessor based system. Some of these include that it only uses 3 components so it is simple to use and install and it will increase your memory.
hardware design and implementation. The exact same as the application of a microprocessor. Many modern, high power digital systems are centered around a microprocessor.
