Communications - The amplitude of a carrier wave is modulated by a data signal and transmitted, for example by radio wave. At the receiving end it is possible to demodulate the signal if the orignal carrier wave is known and retrieve the data signal
Pulse-Amplitude Modulation
The pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) scheme is used as an intermediate step in the creation of pulse code modulation (PCM). In PAM, the amplitude of discrete pulses represents the sampled values of the analog signal. These amplitude levels are then quantized and encoded into a binary format to produce the final PCM signal. This process enables the efficient digital representation of analog information for transmission and storage.
QAM is a combination of phase modulation & amplitude modulation.
In pulse amplitude modulation (PAM), you send a single pulse of a certain height (amplitude) that represents the value of the sampled signal at that time. With pulse code modulation (PCM), you take the same sampled value, but now represent that value by N bits, where N is the number of quantized regions. Why send a whole bunch of bits instead of just a single pulse? Because PCM performs better in situations of higher noise (AWGN).
Analog Pulse modulation is discreet in time but the formation is transmitted in continuous form. In digital pulse modulation, not only the time axis is discreet but the information is also in digital form. Examples of Analog PM are PAM and PTM i.e pulse amplitude and pulse time modulations respectively. Examples of Digital PM are PCM and PDM i.e pulse code and pulse delta modulations respectively.
Explain with diagram the technique Pulse-width modulation?
Pulse-Amplitude Modulation
In Pulse Amplitude Modulation, amplitude of pulse varies with signal. Theoretically in analog modulation there infinite levels of amplitudes or continuous amplitude. Two level PAM is digital modulation where only 2 number of levels are there. Thus signal is quantized to two discrete levels.
Generally pulse amplitude modulation (PAM) is trasmitted as a series of DC levels and are mostly used in wired trasmissions (DC is not effective wirelessly).

PAM-pulse Amplitude Modulation It encodes information in the amplitude of a sequence of signal pulses. PPM-Pulse Position modulation PWM-Pulse Width Modulation.It results in variation of average waveform.
