For transmission through a radiowave.
Carrier
When you convert digital signal to analog, it is called as an analog signal. The device used is called digital to analog converter.
Digital signal processing is the best compared to analog signal. It is because the digital signal is moreefficienterror freeimmune to noisethan an analog signal
An analog-to-digital converter is a device which converts an infinite resolution analog signal to a finite resolution digital signal.
Analog Modulation
For transmission through a radiowave.
In a analog transmitter the RF carrier have to be modulated with the analog signal either by AM or FM where in digital transmitter the carrier is simply switched on and off a off = a zero and on = a one
Frequency modulation and Phase modulation
Carrier
The most fundamental difference, I would say, is that Amplitude Modulation (AM) is a kind of Analog Modulation Technique (the modulation is applied continuously in response to the analog information signal) where Amplitude Shift Keying is a type of Digital Modulation Technique ( an analog carrier signal is modulated by a discrete signal, digital modulation methods can be considered as digital-to-analog conversion, and the corresponding demodulation or detection as analog-to-digital conversion. The changes in the carrier signal are chosen from a finite number of M alternative symbols).
A: A radio transmission signal has an envelope where the carrier frequency are enveloped by the analog signal before demodulation. it can easily be seen by an oscilloscope
In Analog communication, the analog message signal modulates some high carrier frequency inside the transmitter to produce modulated signal.this modulated signal is then transmitted with the help of a transmitting antenna to travel through the transmission channel. At the receiver, this modulated signal is received and processed to recover the original message signal. Example: AM , FM radio transmission an TV transmission.
An DAC convert digital signal to analog signal i.e Digital to Analog Converter. An ADC convert analog signal to digital signal i.e Analog to Digital Converter.
When you convert digital signal to analog, it is called as an analog signal. The device used is called digital to analog converter.
A carrier wave frequency of 200,000 Hz is chosen for analog signals to ensure that the signal can accurately represent the original information being transmitted. This frequency allows for a wider range of frequencies to be modulated onto the carrier wave, resulting in a higher fidelity transmission. Additionally, it is chosen to minimize interference with other signals and to be within the audible range for human perception.
Analog modulationIn analog modulation, the modulation is applied continuously in response to the analog information signal.Common analog modulation techniques are:Amplitude modulation (AM) (here the amplitude of the modulated signal is varied) Double-sideband modulation (DSB) Double-sideband modulation with unsuppressed carrier (DSB-WC) (used on the AM radio broadcasting band)Double-sideband suppressed-carrier transmission (DSB-SC)Double-sideband reduced carrier transmission (DSB-RC)Single-sideband modulation (SSB, or SSB-AM), SSB with carrier (SSB-WC)SSB suppressed carrier modulation (SSB-SC)Vestigial sideband modulation (VSB, or VSB-AM)Quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM)Angle modulation Frequency modulation (FM) (here the frequency of the modulated signal is varied)Phase modulation (PM) (here the phase shift of the modulated signal is varied)
