Is changing the frequency of the carrier wave to match the amplitude of the signal is called frequency modulation?

more or less, yes


What are the difference between carrier signal modulating signal modulated signal baseband and passband?

carrier signal- use for the purpose of conveying information. modulating signal- causes variations in some characteristics of carrier signal. modulated signal - carrier signal after altration in its characteristics is called modulated signal. example- if you want to see an object (suppose it is an modulating signal),you need light(light is carrier signal) and when light will reflect on object you will be able to see if (that is modulated signal)


Comparison of amplitude modulation and frequency modulation?

Amplitude of the (high frequency) Carrier signal is varied with respect to low frequency of message signal is called amplitude modulation. Frequency of the carrier signal is varied with respect to low frequency of message signal is called frequency modulation.


What is signal modulation?

modulating signal is the message to be carried by the carrier signal.


When does Carrier Signal occur?

The carrier signal occurs at the beginning to transmit information.


Is it true that information can be carried on a carrier wave by changing or modulating either the amplitude or frequency?

in frequency modulation, frequency of carrier signal changes. so frequency variations of carrier convey all the information in frequency modulation.


Why carrier signal is always in analog signal?

It isn't always. Baseband analog signals have no carrier.


What is the purpose of carrier signal in modulation?

Carrier signal is of high frequencies, it gives strength to the original signal because original signal cannot travel long distances so it needs to be strengthen a bit for transmitting. The carrier signal is a high frequency signal, called an RF. Radio Frequency signal, it is to high for the human or animal ear to detect it, so its outside the audible spectrum and can easily be transmitted over the air to receivers that is tuned to receive that frequency and detect any modulation on that signal.


Is carrier signal present at output of double side band suppressed carrier?

No, the carrier signal is not present at the output of double side band suppressed carrier. That is what suppressed carrier means. However, the receiver has enough information to regenerate the carrier if need be. The advantage of suppressed carrier mode is that more power can be deployed to the signal-carrying portion of the modulated carrier.


What is FM?

FM stands for frequency modulation. The definition is: when the frequency of the carrier wave is changed in accordance with the intensity of the signal, it is called frequency modulation. In frequency modulation, only the frequency of the carrier wave is changed in accordance with the signal. However, the amplitude of the carrier wave remains unchanged.


How can you block the transmitter signal?

Transmit another signal using the same carrier frequency to interfere with the original signal...also known as "jamming". If you have two signals using the same carrier frequency, and you add a second signal source with the same carrier frequency, and an a stronger amplitude (intensity), but different signal data, then it mixes with the original signal at the receiving end, and the original signal cannot be clearly decoded.
