A: it could be both coupling meaning eliminate DC from the source or decoupling whereby unwanted signal is bypassed to ground
A coupling capacitor does the same work as its name suggests, that is coupling one stage of the electronic circuit with another. It does that without passing the DC bias voltages between stages so that these stages are not affected by each other.To block or avoid the flow of D.C and to allow only A.C
Rc coupled amplifier is used where good frequency response required. in case of multistage amplification system,To prevent resistance of one stage to come in parallel with next stage, it is used. we use capacitor as a coupling element between two consecutive stages.
The capacitor is there to block any dc voltage that might be applied to the input terminal, which could cause damage or upset the biassing if it was allowed through to the base.
At high frequency the capacitor coupling the stages has low reactance, therefore the net resistance of that stage is not equal to next stage, due to this poor impedance matching the power of this stage is not transferred fully to next stage and hence gain falls. And also at high frequency transistor capacitance comes into existence which provides feedback and it thus lowers gain.
Quite simply, it's an amplifier wherein the stages as set up so that the output of one stage is coupled directly into the input of the next stage without any wave shaping or tuninig components between them. This makes for fairly flat frequency response. A link is provided to the Wikipedia article on direct coupling.

A coupling capacitor is used to block the flow of direct current while allowing alternating or signal currents to pass, hence mainly used for joining two stages in radio and amplifier circuits.Also known as blocking capacitor or stopping capacitor. They are also used in substations within a "wave trap" where communication is done by a.c. power line and any d.c. signals need to be attenuated or blocked.
RC COUPLING :- is the most Commonly used Coupling Between the two stages of a cascaded or multistage amplifier because it is cheaper in cost and Very compact circuit and provides excellent frequency response. TRANSFORMER COUPLING :- Impedence Coupling results in more efficient amplification because no signal power is wasted in Inductor L. Such Coupling has the drawback of being larger, Heavier and Costlier than the RC COUPLING. Impedence Coupling is rarely used beyond audio range . by : Muhammad zubair.... muet student of telecom.
Couple an AC signal from one stage to the next stage of the amplifier, while at the same time blocking DC bias voltages so they do not interfere with other stages of the amplifier. The same thing can also be done with coupling transformers, but they are usually much larger and heavier than coupling capacitors, so are rarely used unless they are needed for another reason (e.g. impedance matching, tuned tank circuit).
They are widely used as voltage amplifiers (ie. In the initial stages of public address systems) because of their excellent audio-fidelity over a wide range of frequency. However because of poor impedance matching this type of coupling transistor circuits is rarely employed in final stages

Capacitor coupling involves the use of coupling capacitors.Coupling capacitors are mostly ceramic capacitors.These are in the range of 0.47picofarad to 4.7 microfarad.Never use an electrolytic capacitor for coupling.It is meant for bypassing.coupling capacitors aloow AC and block DC components of a DC coupled signal.This DC component may also include noise,a grounded voltage signal or a step function.The analysis of the circuit involves determining the h-parameters of the amplifying stages,the Fourier transform of the signal applied and at various points of the circuit and the Laplace transform of the circuit sections in order to know the conditions of operations .Using complex engineering mathematics,the time varying analysis can be performed .This makes use of the Maxwell's equations to know the fields of the passive and active elements.
