8、dulation broadly accordingto three basic methods.Each method is then subdivided into various types of modulation.Carrier Wave Modulation Method One of the most common modulation methods is to alter a carrier wave of the formAcos(0t+0),(5.1)where 0 is an arbitrary constant,A is the wave peak amplitud
9、e,and 0is the carrier frequency.More or less obvious modulation approaches are to make A a function of the information signal f(t)or to add a phase term to the cosine argument which depends onf(t).These methods may be characterized as continuous wave(cw)modulation.The result of cw modulation is usua
10、lly a bandpass signal because the carrier frequency is often much higher than the largest significant frequency component in f(t).ModulationPulse Modulation Method Another modulation method,pulse modulation,involves changing some parameter of a train of pulses.For example,the amplitude of the pulses
11、 could be varied as some function of the information signal f(t).Alternatives would be to vary pulse duration or position.Pulse modulation does not involve a carrier.The resulting modulated signal is still baseband but is no longer the original information signal.Both cw and pulse modulation may be
12、classed as analog modulation which involves varying the modulated parameter continuously as a linear function of the information signal.Coded or Digital Modulation Method Coded modulation involves changing a characteristic of a pulse train but is Modulationa markedly different method from pulse modu
