Phrases 7
- amplitude modulationsplural of amplitude modulation: A method of sending information by modifying (modulating) the intensity (amplitude) of a carrier wave.
- frequency modulationsplural of frequency modulation: The use of a modulating wave to vary the instantaneous frequency of a carrier wave.
- phase modulationsplural of phase modulation: A method of sending information by modifying (modulating) the difference in phase (fraction of a wave length) between a signal and a reference.
- pulse modulationsplural of pulse modulation: Any of a number of techniques whereby a series of information-carrying quantities occurring at discrete instances of time is encoded into a corresponding series of electromagnetic carrier pulses.
- ring modulationsplural of ring modulation: A signal processing function in which two signals (typically a complex signal and a less complex carrier such as a sine wave) are combined to yield an output.
- quadrature amplitude modulationsplural of quadrature amplitude modulation: A modulation scheme that conveys data by applying amplitude modulation to two carrier waves at once. These two waves, usually sinusoids, are out of phase with each other by 90° and are thus called …
- single-sideband modulationsplural of single-sideband modulation: A modification of amplitude modulation that modulates the output signal on a single sideband only, as opposed to both sidebands.
