Bandwidth is the amount of frequencies that a signal occupies. For example, the
|
||||
Human voice can make frequencies from 300Hz to 3000Hz, therefore having a
|
||||
bandwidth of 3000 - 300 = 2700Hz.
|
||||
bandwidth of 3000 - 300 = 2700Hz.

== Types of Modulation ==
|
||||
|
||||
=== CW ===
|
||||
|
||||
Bandwidth: 150hz
|
||||
|
||||
Continuous Wave of CW is a type of signal where the pulsing of the signal
|
||||
encoded information, instead of modifying the carrier signal. An example of
|
||||
this is Morse code. Due to how concentrated the signal is, CW is used for
|
||||
extreme ranges.
|
||||
|
||||
=== AM ===
|
||||
|
||||
Bandwidth: 6khz (voice); 10khz (broadcast)
|
||||
|
||||
Amplitude Modulation of AM is a form of modulation where the amplitude of the
|
||||
signal is changed to encode information. The signal as a result will take up
|
||||
space both above and below the carrier, called Upper Side Band (USB) and Lower
|
||||
Side Band (LSB).
|
||||
|
||||
=== SSB ===
|
||||
|
||||
Bandwidth: 2-3khz (voice); 500-3000hz (digital)
|
||||
|
||||
Single Side Band (SSB) Is when an AM signal is encoded by only modulating one
|
||||
part of the signal, and leaving the other unchanged. This allows for less
|
||||
bandwidth use for the same information.
|
||||
|
||||
Due to SSB concentrating the same amount of power for the signal into a
|
||||
narrower portion of the signal, it is often used for long distance VHF and UHF
|
||||
(see [[frequency_range]]).
|
||||
|
||||
Standards have formed around SSB, and wether to use USB or LSB on different
|
||||
frequencies. If < 10Mhz, LSB. Else if >= 10Mhz, USB.
|
||||
|
||||
=== FM/PM ===
|
||||
|
||||
Bandwidth: 10-15khz (voice); 150khz (broadcast)
|
||||
|
||||
Frequency Modulation (FM) and Phase Modulation (PM) are two similar types of
|
||||
modulation where the signal is encoded by changing either the frequency of the
|
||||
signal, or the phase of the signal.
