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).
Hi, Same as always. AM (amplitude modulation). FM (frequency modulation) and some FM's are now adding a digital component to their signal at the sacrifice of some transmitted volume. Hope that helps, Cubby
amplitude modulation & frequency modulation
amplitude modulation
Frequency ModulationFM broadcasting is a broadcast technology invented by Edwin Armstrong that used Frequency Modulation (FM) to provide high fidelity sound over broadcast radioFrequency Modulated and Amplitude Modulation :) The way a signal is transmitted.
Actually there are four:widthamplitudepositioncodeOf these four pulse code modulation is digital while the other three are analog.
In pulse modulation, the carrier signal is typically a continuous analog waveform, such as a sine wave or square wave, that serves as the basis for transmitting information. The modulation process involves varying certain properties of this carrier wave—such as its amplitude, width, or position—according to the information signal. This modulation allows the information to be encoded and transmitted efficiently over various communication channels. Common types of pulse modulation include Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM), Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), and Pulse Position Modulation (PPM).
Explain with diagram the technique Pulse-width modulation?
Pulse-Amplitude Modulation
Frequency modulation have some advantages over amplitude modulation, FM is not sensitive to the amplitude noise, and have high efficient use of transmitted power
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.

carry information as well as to generate other pulse modulations.
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.
In amplitude modulation (AM), the modulation index (m) represents the ratio of the peak amplitude of the modulating signal to the peak amplitude of the carrier signal. The transmitted power in an AM signal increases with the modulation index, as higher modulation indices lead to greater variations in the carrier's amplitude. Specifically, the total transmitted power can be expressed as a function of the carrier power and the modulation index, with more power being allocated to sidebands as m increases. However, beyond a certain point, further increasing the modulation index can lead to distortion, as the signal may exceed the linear range of the amplifier.
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.
Pulse-position modulation (PPM) is a form of signal modulation in which M message bits are encoded by transmitting a single pulse in one of 2M possible time-shifts. This is repeated every T seconds, such that the transmitted bit rate is M/T bits per second. It is primarily useful for optical Amplitude_modulation_compared_to_Pulse_position_modulation'systems, where there tends to be little or no multipath interference.Read more: Amplitude_modulation_compared_to_Pulse_position_modulation'This answer is lifted from response to "Amplitude modulation compared to Pulse modulation", so the original answerer gets credit for a great answer.
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.
