Digital Modulation and Data Transmission Methods

Modulation is called the transaction by which certain characteristics of a wave called a carrier, be modified in light of another wave called modules, which contains information

The modulation process requires two signals, Modules and carriers, and as a result generates a third signal, called the modulated signal.

The carrier signal parameters that are affected by the information are: MODULATION
