What is M-ary modulation?
An M-ary transmission is a type of digital modulation where instead of transmitting one bit at a time, two or more bits are transmitted simultaneously. This type of transmission results in reduced channel bandwidth. However, sometimes, two or more quadrature carriers are used for modulation.
What are the advantages of M-Ary modulation?
It has better performance than ASK and FSK. Minimal phase estimation error at the receiver. The bandwidth efficiency of M-ary PSK decreases and the power efficiency increases with the increase in M.
What is M-ary FSK modulation?
M-ary frequency shift keying (FSK) is a power efficient modulation scheme whose efficiency improves as the number of frequencies employed (M) increases at the expense of additional complexity and smaller bandwidth efficiency. This scheme has been found advantageous in low rate low power applications.
What is the difference between M-ary PSK and M-ary QAM signal?
QAM is a modulation technique of both analog and digital signal and M-ary PSK is the type of phase shift keying where variations of multiple phases are used instead of two phases.
