In this lecture I refer to several different modulation types (analog as well as digital). I want to give a brief overview about the short cuts of modulation types I will mention and the meaning of the short cuts.
AM | Amplitude Modulation |
FM | Frequency Modulation |
PCM | Pulse Code Modulation |
PAM | Pulse Amplitude Modulation |
FDMA | Frequency Division Multiple Access |
TDMA | Time Division Multiple Access |
CDMA | Code Division Multiple Access |
TDM | Time Division Multiplexing |
PSK | Phase Key Shifting |
QPSK | Quaternary Phase Key Shifting |
SCPC | Single Channel Per Carrier |
FEC | Forward Error Coding |
Spread Spectrum |
I invite your suggestions for revising this document. I plan to review and revise this document as the need arises.
