  2. In-phase and quadrature components - Wikipedia

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

    By just amplitude-modulating these two 90°-out-of-phase sine waves and adding them, it is possible to produce the effect of arbitrarily modulating some carrier: amplitude and phase. A phasor for I/Q, and the resultant wave which is continually phase shifting, according to the phasor's frequency. Note that since this resultant wave is ...

  3. 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.

  4. Carrier wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier_wave

    In telecommunications, a carrier wave, carrier signal, or just carrier, is a periodic waveform (usually sinusoidal) that initially carries no information. Through a process called modulation , one or more of the wave's properties are modified by an information bearing signal (called the message signal or modulation signal ) to convey information.

  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. Phase-shift keying - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase-shift_keying

    Phase-shift keying (PSK) is a digital modulation process which conveys data by changing (modulating) the phase of a constant frequency carrier wave. The modulation is accomplished by varying the sine and cosine inputs at a precise time. It is widely used for wireless LANs, RFID and Bluetooth communication.

  7. Carrier recovery - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier_recovery

    A carrier recovery system is a circuit used to estimate and compensate for frequency and phase differences between a received signal's carrier wave and the receiver's local oscillator for the purpose of coherent demodulation.

  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. Phasor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phasor

    Phasor notation (also known as angle notation) is a mathematical notation used in electronics engineering and electrical engineering.A vector whose polar coordinates are magnitude and angle is written . [13] can represent either the vector (⁡, ⁡) or the complex number ⁡ + ⁡ =, according to Euler's formula with =, both of which have magnitudes of 1.
