  2. Modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulation

    Categorization for signal modulation based on data and carrier types. In electronics and telecommunications, modulation is the process of varying one or more properties of a periodic waveform, called the carrier signal, with a separate signal called the modulation signal that typically contains information to be transmitted. [1]

  3. Amplitude modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplitude_modulation

    Amplitude modulation (AM) is a modulation technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for transmitting messages with a radio wave.In amplitude modulation, the amplitude (signal strength) of the wave is varied in proportion to that of the message signal, such as an audio signal.

    indicating double speed, which would now be marked (=). [13] The phrase l'istesso tempo was used for what may now be notated with metric modulation markings. For example: 2 4 to 6 8 (=.), will be marked l'istesso tempo, indicating the beat is the same speed.

  5. Phase-shift keying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-shift_keying

    The higher-speed wireless LAN standard, IEEE 802.11g-2003, [10] [12] has eight data rates: 6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and 54 Mbit/s. The 6 and 9 Mbit/s modes use OFDM modulation where each sub-carrier is BPSK modulated. The 12 and 18 Mbit/s modes use OFDM with QPSK. The fastest four modes use OFDM with forms of quadrature amplitude modulation.

  6. Baud - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baud

    In telecommunications and electronics, baud (/ b ɔː d /; symbol: Bd) is a common unit of measurement of symbol rate, which is one of the components that determine the speed of communication over a data channel. It is the unit for symbol rate or modulation rate in symbols per second or pulses per second.

  7. Phase modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_modulation

    Phase modulation (PM) is a modulation pattern for conditioning communication signals for transmission. It encodes a message signal as variations in the instantaneous phase of a carrier wave . Phase modulation is one of the two principal forms of angle modulation , together with frequency modulation .

  8. Pulse-width modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-width_modulation

    Pulse-width modulation (PWM), also known as pulse-duration modulation (PDM) or pulse-length modulation (PLM), [1] is any method of representing a signal as a rectangular wave with a varying duty cycle (and for some methods also a varying period). PWM is useful for controlling the average power or amplitude delivered by an electrical signal.

  9. Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthogonal_frequency...

    DSL achieves high-speed data connections on existing copper wires. OFDM is also used in the successor standards ADSL2, ADSL2+, VDSL, VDSL2, and G.fast. ADSL2 uses variable subcarrier modulation, ranging from BPSK to 32768QAM (in ADSL terminology this is referred to as bit-loading, or bit per tone, 1 to 15 bits per subcarrier).
