Passband Modulation: Modulation From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia For Other Uses, See

This document provides an overview of modulation techniques. It defines modulation as the process of varying one or more properties of a periodic waveform, called the carrier signal, with a modulating signal that contains information to be transmitted. It describes how modulation transforms a baseband message signal into a passband signal suitable for transmission. The document lists and defines various analog and digital modulation techniques as well as spread spectrum techniques used to modulate carrier signals.

In electronics and telecommunications, modulation is the process of varying one or more


properties of a periodic waveform, called the carrier signal, with a modulating signal that
typically contains information to be transmitted.
In telecommunications, modulation is the process of conveying a message signal, for example a
digital bit stream or an analog audio signal, inside another signal that can be physically
transmitted. Modulation of a sine waveform transforms a baseband message signal into a
passband signal.
A modulator is a device that performs modulation. A demodulator (sometimes detector or
demod) is a device that performs demodulation, the inverse of modulation. A modem (from
modulatordemodulator) can perform both operations.
The aim of analog modulation is to transfer an analog baseband (or lowpass) signal, for
example an audio signal or TV signal, over an analog bandpass channel at a different frequency,
for example over a limited radio frequency band or a cable TV network channel.
