💡 Words with a Similar Meaning to "Ring modulation"

Found via reverse dictionary — words that share a conceptual meaning.

WordDefinition
pulse modulationnounAny of a number of techniques whereby a series of information-carrying quantities occurring at discrete instances of time is encoded into a corresponding series of electromagnetic carrier pulses.
amplitude modulationnoun(radio) A method of sending information by modifying (modulating) the intensity (amplitude) of a carrier wave.
phase modulationnounA method of sending information by modifying (modulating) the difference in phase (fraction of a wave length) between a signal and a reference.
quadrature amplitude modulationnoun(radio) A modulation scheme that conveys data by applying amplitude modulation to two carrier waves at once. These two waves, usually sinusoids, are out of phase with each other by 90° and are thus called quadrature carriers. Commonly abbreviated QAM.
envelopenounA paper or cardboard wrapper used to enclose small, flat items, especially letters, for mailing.
frequency modulationnoun(sound, radio) the use of a modulating wave to vary the instantaneous frequency of a carrier wave
single-sideband modulationnoun(radio) A modification of amplitude modulation that modulates the output signal on a single sideband only, as opposed to both sidebands.
pulse modulatornounA device for the pulse modulation of a radio-frequency carrier signal
overmodulationnoun(telecommunications) The condition where the instantaneous level of the modulating signal exceeds the value necessary to produce 100% modulation of the carrier, resulting in distortion.
sidebandnounThe band of frequencies each side of the frequency of a carrier wave; formed as a result of modulation of the carrier.
phase modulatornounan electronic circuit that causes the phase angle of a modulated wave to vary in accordance with the modulating signal
carriernounA person or object that carries someone or something else.
carrier wavenoun(physics) A wave that can be modulated, either in amplitude, frequency, or phase, to carry or transmit images, music, speech, or other signals.
ring oscillatornounA device composed of an odd number of NOT gates whose output oscillates between two voltage levels, representing true and false. The NOT gates, or inverters, are attached in a chain; the output of the last inverter is fed back into the first.
radionoun(countable) A device that can capture (receive) the signal sent over radio waves and render the modulated signal as sound.
signalnounA sign made to give notice of some occurrence, command, or danger, or to indicate the start of a concerted action.
phase-shift keyingnounA form of phase modulation in which digital information is transmitted through discrete changes of the phase of a carrier wave.
transmitternounAn electronic device that generates and amplifies a carrier wave, modulates it with a meaningful signal derived from speech, music, TV or other sources, and broadcasts the resulting signal from an antenna.
modulatornounA device or thing that modulates.
derampnounA process for cleaning up electronic signals such as radar, in which a received signal is mixed with a reference signal in order to highlight differences in frequencies.
