Advanced Signal Processing
Amplitude modulation (AM) is a technique used to encode information in a carrier wave by varying its amplitude. This method allows for the transmission of audio, video, or other data over long distances while maintaining the integrity of the original signal. By changing the amplitude of the carrier wave in proportion to the information signal, AM creates variations that can be analyzed spectrally, revealing insights into non-stationary signals and their frequency components.
congrats on reading the definition of Amplitude Modulation. now let's actually learn it.
