demodulate (wn) | demodulate
v 1: extract information from a modulated carrier wave |
modulated (wn) | modulated
adj 1: changed or adjusted in pitch, tone, or volume [ant:
unmodulated]
2: altered in volume as well as tone or pitch |
unmodulated (wn) | unmodulated
adj 1: characterized by lack of variation in pitch, tone, or
volume; "he lectured in an unmodulated voice edged with
hysteria" [ant: modulated] |
demodulate (foldoc) | demodulation
demodulate
To recover the signal from the carrier.
For example, in a radio broadcast using amplitude modulation
the audio signal is transmitted as the mean amplitude of a
radio-frequency carrier so demodulation requires a circuit
which measures the amplitude and filters out the carrier.
There are many other kinds of modulation and corresponding
demodulation.
