  2. Tuned radio frequency receiver - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuned_radio_frequency_receiver

    A tuned radio frequency receiver (or TRF receiver) is a type of radio receiver that is composed of one or more tuned radio frequency (RF) amplifier stages followed by a detector (demodulator) circuit to extract the audio signal and usually an audio frequency amplifier. This type of receiver was popular in the 1920s.

    ASTEC UM 1286 UHF modulator, top cover taken off. An RF modulator (radio frequency modulator) is an electronic device used to convert signals from devices such as media players, VCRs and game consoles to a format that can be handled by a device designed to receive a modulated RF input, such as a radio or television receiver.

  4. Optical modulator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_modulator

    An optical modulator is a device which is used to modulate a beam of light. The beam may be carried over free space, or propagated through an optical waveguide (optical fibre). Depending on the parameter of a light beam which is manipulated, modulators may be categorized into amplitude modulators, phase modulators, polarization modulators, etc.
