It was used as a local oscillator in some radar receivers and a modulator in microwave transmitters in the 1950s and 1960s, but is now obsolete, replaced by semiconductor microwave devices. In the reflex klystron the electron beam passes through a single resonant cavity. The electrons are fired into one end of the tube by an electron gun. After ...
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.
The Stanford Dish in the early morning hours. The Dish in the Stanford foothills. The Stanford Dish, known locally as the Dish, is a radio antenna in the Stanford foothills. . The 150-foot-diameter (46 m) dish was built in 1961 by the Stanford Research Institute (now SRI Internatio
Federal Signal Modulators (also known as Modulator Speaker Arrays) are electronic warning devices produced by Federal Signal Corporation that are used to alert the public about tornadoes, severe weather, earthquakes, fires, lahars, tsunamis, or any other disaster. They are identified mostly by their distinctive stacked "flying saucer" design.
An acousto-optic modulator (AOM), also called a Bragg cell or an acousto-optic deflector (AOD), uses the acousto-optic effect to diffract and shift the frequency of light using sound waves (usually at radio-frequency). They are used in lasers for Q-switching, telecommunications for signal modulation, and in spectroscopy for frequency control.
If the information to be transmitted (i.e., the baseband signal) is () and the sinusoidal carrier is () = (), where f c is the carrier's base frequency, and A c is the carrier's amplitude, the modulator combines the carrier with the baseband data signal to get the transmitted signal: [4] [citation needed]
A television transmitter is a transmitter that is used for terrestrial (over-the-air) television broadcasting.It is an electronic device that radiates radio waves that carry a video signal representing moving images, along with a synchronized audio channel, which is received by television receivers ('televisions' or 'TVs') belonging to a public audience, which display the image on a screen.
As well as within a transmitter, I/Q data is also a common means to represent the signal from some receiver. Designs such as the Digital down converter allow the input signal to be represented as streams of IQ data, likely for further processing and symbol extraction in a DSP. Analog systems may suffer from issues, such as IQ imbalance.
