This can be done through wires called transmission lines or through atmosphere by a radio link. Other examples include: – Telephone – speaking at a distance Television – seeing at a distance Telegraph – writing at a distance 6

And finally transmit the signal. • Transmission medium – connecting the transmitter and the receiver that enable the modulated signal, ptx(t) propagate through the medium. • Receiver – receive the modulated signal, prx(t) and then convert the signal to modulating signal, mrx(t) through the process called demodulation. • Output Transducer – convert the modulating signal, mrx(t) to its original forms (output signal), r(t) that is useful to the users. eg: loud speaker.

Editor's Notes
- People can communicate with other people. This is one unmistakable characteristic that points out the difference between humans and other animals (i.e. the ability to communicate). During the early days, communication among humans was limited by distance. People communicated by natural senses of hearing and sight or by written words. Actual words could be conveyed although the process was very slow. As the distance increased beyond the normal range of vision and hearing it became very difficult or near to impossible to communicate using the above methods. People searched for better ways of communicating faster and over long distances. Smoke signals and flag signaling were used to send messages. These were used for centuries until the nineteenth century when electrical signals came in use. In 1869, the telephone was invented. This marked a real breakthrough. At that time, it seemed like a miracle to be able to talk to someone so many miles away as easily and quickly as they were standing next to you. The arrival of wireless communication nearly three decades after the Telephone, completed the breakthrough it seemed like a miracle to be able to talk to someone so many miles away as easily and quickly as they were standing next to you.
- transmission of a digital or analog signal signaling at its original frequencies.
- Phase modulation (PM) is a form of modulation that represents information as variations in the instantaneous phase of a carrier wave. Unlike its more popular counterpart, frequency modulation (FM), PM is not very widely used. This is because it tends to require more complex receiving hardware and there can be ambiguity problems with determining whether, for example, the signal has 0° phase or 180° phase.
- Example: Telephone voice signal is analog. The intensity of the voice causes electric current variations. At the receiving end, the signal is reproduced in the same proportion. Hence the electric current is a ‘MODEL’ but not one’s voice since it is an electrical representation or analog of one’s voice.
- In electronic communication, bandwidth is the width of the range (or band) of frequencies that an electronic signal uses on a given transmission medium. In this usage, bandwidth is expressed in terms of the difference between the highest-frequency signal component and the lowest-frequency signal component. What is bandwidth? Bandwidth is the total range of frequency required to pass a specific signal that has been modulated to carry data without distortion or loss of data. The ideal bandwidth allows the signal to pass under conditions of maximum AM or FM adjustment. (Too narrow a bandwidth will result in loss of data. Too wide a bandwidth will pass excessive noise.) Transmitters and receivers have bandwidths. The &quot;wider&quot; the receiver&apos;s bandwidth is, the more information it can receive on different frequencies. The term bandwidth is used metaphorically for the carrying ability of Internet carriers. For example, if you can receive information from the Internet over a slow modem, you get less information per second than if you were connected to a fast modem. Thus, you have &quot;low bandwidth&quot; and the Internet appears slower to you. Modem (from modulator-demodulator) is a device that modulates an analog carrier signal to encode digital information, and also demodulates such a carrier signal to decode the transmitted information. The goal is to produce a signal that can be transmitted easily and decoded to reproduce the original digital data. Modems can be used over any means of transmitting analog signals, from driven diodes to radio.
- Radio waves in the VLF band propagate in a ground, or surface wave. The wave is connected at one end to the surface of the earth and to the ionosphere at the other . The ionosphere is the region above the troposphere (where the air is), from about 50 to250 miles above the earth. Ground waves travel between two limits, the earth and the ionosphere, which acts like a duct. Since the duct curves with the earth, the ground wave will follow. Therefore very long range propagation is possible using ground waves.
- Sky waves are reflections from the ionosphere. While the wave is in the ionosphere, it is strongly curved, or refracted, ultimately back to the ground. From a long distance away this appears as a reflection. Long ranges are possible in this mode also, up to hundreds of miles. Sky waves in this frequency band are usually only possible at night, when the concentration of ions is not too great since the ionosphere also tends to attenuate the signal. However, at night, there are just enough ions to reflect the wave but not reduce its power too much.
- In the VHF band and up, the propagation tends to straighten out into line-of-sight(LOS)waves. However the frequency is still low enough for some significant effects.
