  2. Modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulation

    Digital modulation schemes are possible because the transmitter-receiver pair has prior knowledge of how data is encoded and represented in the communications system. In all digital communication systems, both the modulator at the transmitter and the demodulator at the receiver are structured so that they perform inverse operations.

  3. Frequency modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_modulation

    The frequencies may represent digits, such as '0' and '1'. FSK is widely used in computer modems such as fax modems, telephone caller ID systems, garage door openers, and other low-frequency transmissions. [1] Radioteletype also uses FSK. [2] Frequency modulation is widely used for FM radio broadcasting.

    VOFDM was proposed by Xiang-Gen Xia in 2000 (Proceedings of ICC 2000, New Orleans, and IEEE Trans. on Communications, Aug. 2001) for single transmit antenna systems. VOFDM replaces each scalar value in the conventional OFDM by a vector value and is a bridge between OFDM and the single carrier frequency domain equalizer (SC-FDE).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_frequency-shift...

    The current specification "Piccolo Mark IV" was still in limited use by the UK government, mainly for point-to-point military radio communications, up to the late 1990s. [4] [5] Coquelet is a similar modulation system developed by the French government for similar applications. [3]

  6. Minimum-shift keying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum-shift_keying

    In digital modulation, minimum-shift keying (MSK) is a type of continuous-phase frequency-shift keying that was developed in the late 1950s by Collins Radio employees Melvin L. Doelz and Earl T. Heald. [1]

  7. Single-sideband modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-sideband_modulation

    In radio communications, single-sideband modulation (SSB) or single-sideband suppressed-carrier modulation (SSB-SC) is a type of modulation used to transmit information, such as an audio signal, by radio waves. A refinement of amplitude modulation, it uses transmitter power and bandwidth more efficiently.

  8. Radio transmitter design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_transmitter_design

    For example, many FM systems will employ pre-emphasis and de-emphasis for noise reduction, in which case the high-pass equivalency of phase modulation automatically provides for the pre-emphasis. Phase modulators are typically only capable of relatively small amounts of deviation while remaining linear, but any frequency multiplier stages also ...

  9. Constellation diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constellation_diagram

    After passing through a communication channel, due to electronic noise or distortion added to the signal, the amplitude and phase received by the demodulator may differ from the correct value for the symbol. When plotted on a constellation diagram the point representing that received sample will be offset from the correct position for that symbol.
