Amplitude Modulation Flashcards
the process of altering a characteristic of the carrier in
accordance with the instantaneous value of the intelligence signal.
Modulation
Modulation
the process of altering a characteristic of the carrier in
accordance with the instantaneous value of the intelligence signal.
Characteristics of the carrier that can be varied in modulation
amplitude,
frequency and phase.
process of recovering the intelligence signal from a
modulated carrier signal
Demodulation
Demodulation
process of recovering the intelligence signal from a
modulated carrier signal
Reasons for Modulation
-For minimizing interference
-For frequency assignment
-For making antenna sizes practical
-For multiplexing
