A sine signal, shifted 90 degrees in Phase. It otherwise is practically the same.

Also, when a cosine signal coexists with a sine signal, it can be on the same frequency without interfering. The consequence of that is ... Two Channels can exist on the same frequency which are the Sine and the Cosine, and they can be separated in a receiver that can process and separate both of those Phases.

Why you are considering sine wave as ac but not cosine wave?

Sine wave is considered as the AC signal because it starts at 0 amplitude and it captures the alternating nature of the signal. Cosine wave is just a phase shift of the sine wave and represents the same signal. So, either sine or cosine wave can be used to represent AC signals. However, sine wave is more conventionally used.

Why cosine wave is used as carrier signal in all modulation techniques. why not sine wave?

The sinusoidal wave is harmonically pure, i.e. it only has one frequency in the frequency domain. If it were not harmonically pure, i.e. if it were not sinusoidal, it would be more difficult, if not impossible, to demodulate it at the receiver.

What is a cosine function?

A cosine function is a mathematical function defined as the ratio of the adjacent side to the hypotenuse in a right triangle, typically denoted as ( \cos(x) ), where ( x ) is the angle in radians. It is a periodic function with a period of ( 2\pi ) that oscillates between -1 and 1. The graph of the cosine function is a wave-like curve that starts at 1 when ( x = 0 ) and decreases to -1, then returns to 1. Cosine functions are widely used in trigonometry, physics, engineering, and signal processing.


What is an inverse cosine?
