  2. GNSS enhancement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNSS_enhancement

    A second form of precise monitoring is called carrier-phase enhancement (CPGPS). [1] The error, which this corrects, arises because the pulse transition of the PRN is not instantaneous, and thus the correlation (satellite–receiver sequence matching) operation is imperfect. The CPGPS approach utilizes the L1 carrier wave, which has a period of

  3. In-phase and quadrature components - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In-phase_and_quadrature...

    The two amplitude-modulated sinusoids are known as the in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components, which describes their relationships with the amplitude- and phase-modulated carrier. [ A ] [ 2 ] Or in other words, it is possible to create an arbitrarily phase-shifted sine wave, by mixing together two sine waves that are 90° out of phase in ...

  4. Carrier-envelope phase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-envelope_phase

    The carrier-envelope phase (CEP) or carrier-envelope offset (CEO) phase is an important feature of an ultrashort laser pulse and gains significance with decreasing pulse duration, in a regime where the pulse consists of a few wavelengths. Physical effects depending on the carrier-envelope phase fall into the category of highly nonlinear optics.

  5. Phase modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_modulation

    The peak amplitude and the frequency of the carrier signal are maintained constant, but as the amplitude of the message signal changes, the phase of the carrier changes correspondingly. Phase modulation is an integral part of many digital transmission coding schemes that underlie a wide range of technologies like Wi-Fi, GSM and satellite ...

  6. Real-time kinematic positioning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_kinematic...

    Real-time kinematic positioning (RTK) is the application of surveying to correct for common errors in current satellite navigation (GNSS) systems. [1] It uses measurements of the phase of the signal's carrier wave in addition to the information content of the signal and relies on a single reference station or interpolated virtual station to ...

  7. Constellation diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constellation_diagram

    Each symbol is encoded as a different phase shift of the carrier sine wave: 0°, 45°, 90°, 135°, 180°, 225°, 270°, 315°. A constellation diagram is a representation of a signal modulated by a digital modulation scheme such as quadrature amplitude modulation or phase-shift keying . [ 1 ]

  8. Time-varying phasor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-varying_phasor

    [1] [5] The phasor representation of sinusoidal voltages and currents is generalized to arbitrary waveforms. [2] This mathematical transformation eliminates the 60 Hertz (Hz) carrier which is the only time-varying element in the stationary case. [3] The longer usage of time-varying phasors in large power systems since 1920s have created many ...

  9. Amplitude and phase-shift keying - Wikipedia

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

    Amplitude and phase-shift keying (APSK) is a digital modulation scheme that conveys data by modulating both the amplitude and the phase of a carrier wave. In other words, it combines both amplitude-shift keying (ASK) and phase-shift keying (PSK).
