  2. 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.

  3. Pulse width - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_width

    The pulse width is a measure of the elapsed time between the leading and trailing edges of a single pulse of energy. ... a concept known as pulse-width modulation.

  4. Servo control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_control

    This is a form of pulse-width modulation. The typical RC servo expects to see a pulse every 20 ms, however this can vary within a wide range that differs from servo to servo. The width of the pulse will determine how far the motor turns. For example, in many RC servos a 1.5 ms pulse will make the motor turn to the 90° position (neutral position).

  5. Random pulse-width modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_pulse-width_modulation

    Random pulse-width modulation (RPWM) is a modulation technique introduced for mitigating electromagnetic interference (EMI) of power converters by spreading the energy of the noise signal over a wider bandwidth, so that there are no significant peaks of the noise.

  6. Duty cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duty_cycle

    Pulse-width modulation (PWM) is used in a variety of electronic situations, such as power delivery and voltage regulation. In electronic music, music synthesizers vary the duty cycle of their audio-frequency oscillators to obtain a subtle effect on the tone colors. This technique is known as pulse-width modulation.

  7. Radar signal characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_signal_characteristics

    Radar Pulse Train. The carrier is an RF signal, typically of microwave frequencies, which is usually (but not always) modulated to allow the system to capture the required data. In simple ranging radars, the carrier will be pulse modulated and in continuous wave systems, such as Doppler radar, modulation may not be required

  8. Modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulation

    These are not modulation schemes in the conventional sense since they are not channel coding schemes, but should be considered as source coding schemes, and in some cases analog-to-digital conversion techniques. Analog-over-analog methods. Pulse-amplitude modulation (PAM) Pulse-width modulation (PWM) and pulse-depth modulation (PDM)

    Pulse-width modulation, a technique for controlling the average power delivered by an electrical signal; PWM (window manager), a Unix-based X window manager;
