This document discusses three basic techniques for converting digital data into analog signals: amplitude shift keying, frequency shift keying, and phase shift keying. Amplitude shift keying encodes bits as different signal amplitudes, with one amplitude representing a 0 and another representing a 1. Frequency shift keying encodes bits as different signal frequencies. Phase shift keying encodes bits as different signal phase changes. The document also explains how multiple signal levels can be used to represent more than one bit per signal, and how quadrature phase shift keying uses four phase angles to encode bits.

Amplitude Shift Keying
One amplitude encodes a 0 while another amplitude encodes a 1 (a form of amplitude modulation).
Amplitude Shift Keying
Some systems use multiple amplitudes.
Multiple Signal Levels
We can represent two levels with a single bit, 0 or 1. We can represent four levels with two bits: 00, 01, 10, 11. We can represent eight levels with three bits: 000, 001, 010, 011, 100, 101, 110, 111 Note that the number of levels is always a power of 2.
Frequency Shift Keying
One frequency encodes a 0 while another frequency encodes a 1 (a form of frequency modulation).
Phase Shift Keying
One phase change encodes a 0 while another phase change encodes a 1 (a form of phase modulation).
Quadrature Phase Shift Keying
Four different phase angles are used: 45 degrees 135 degrees 225 degrees 315 degrees
