What is the difference between PSK and FSK?
FSK: Frequency Shift Keying: Message signal changes the carrier's frequency. C. PSK: Phase Shift Keying : Message signal changes the carrier's phase.
Why PSK is preferred over FSK?
Benefits or advantages of PSK
➨It carries data over RF signal more efficiently compare to other modulation types. Hence it is more power efficient modulation technique compare to ASK and FSK. ➨It is less susceptible to errors compare to ASK modulation and occupies same bandwidth as ASK.
Why is PSK preferred over ASK?
Unlike ASK signals, both PSK and FSK signals have a constant envelope. PSK and FSK are preferred to ASK signals for passband data transmission over nonlinear channel (amplitude nonlinearities) such as micorwave link and satellite channels.
