  2. Amplitude modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amplitude_modulation

    Amplitude modulation (AM) is a modulation technique used in electronic communication, most commonly for transmitting messages with a radio wave. In amplitude modulation, the amplitude (signal strength) of the wave is varied in proportion to that of the message signal, such as an audio signal .

  3. AM broadcasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AM_broadcasting

    AM broadcasting is radio broadcasting using amplitude modulation (AM) transmissions. It was the first method developed for making audio radio transmissions, and is still used worldwide, primarily for medium wave (also known as "AM band") transmissions, but also on the longwave and shortwave radio bands.

  4. List of amateur radio modes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_amateur_radio_modes

    Most amateur digital modes are transmitted by inserting audio into the microphone input of a radio and using an analog scheme, such as amplitude modulation (AM), frequency modulation (FM), or single-sideband modulation (SSB). Amateur teleprinting over radio (AMTOR) D-STAR (Digital Data) a high speed (128 kbit/s), data-only mode.

  5. Radio broadcasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_broadcasting

    AM stations were the earliest broadcasting stations to be developed. AM refers to amplitude modulation, a mode of broadcasting radio waves by varying the amplitude of the carrier signal in response to the amplitude of the signal to be transmitted. The medium-wave band is used worldwide for AM broadcasting. Europe also uses the long wave band.

  6. Modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulation

    In analog modulation, the modulation is applied continuously in response to the analog information signal. Common analog modulation techniques include: Amplitude modulation (AM) (here the amplitude of the carrier signal is varied in accordance with the instantaneous amplitude of the modulating signal) Double-sideband modulation (DSB)

  7. FM broadcasting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FM_broadcasting

    AM (amplitude modulation) and FM (frequency modulation) are types of modulation. The sound of the program material, usually coming from a radio studio, is used to modulate (vary) a carrier wave of a specific frequency, then broadcast. In AM broadcasting, the amplitude of the carrier wave is

  8. Broadcast band - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast_band

    amplitude modulation (AM) medium frequency (MF) Usually speech and news, where a lower bandwidth will suffice; long range at night due to the ionosphere increasing in altitude Shortwave: Multiple; see Shortwave bands: Mostly AM and single-sideband (SSB) modes high frequency (HF) Very long range through "skipping".

  9. Analog transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_transmission

    Analog transmission is a transmission method of conveying information using a continuous signal which varies in amplitude, phase, or some other property in proportion to that information. It could be the transfer of an analog signal, using an analog modulation method such as frequency modulation (FM) or amplitude modulation (AM), or no ...
