What do you mean by baseband signal?

A baseband signal or lowpass signal is a signal that can include frequencies that are very near zero, by comparison with its highest frequency (for example, a sound waveform can be considered as a baseband signal, whereas a radio signal or any other modulated signal is not).

Where is baseband signal is used?

A baseband signal can be transmitted over a pair of wires (like in a telephone), coaxial cables, or optical fibers. But a baseband signal cannot be transmitted over a radio link or a satellite because this would require a large antenna to radiate the low-frequency spectrum of the signal.

What is baseband in simple terms?

base·​band. : the band of frequencies that carries information in electronic communications and usually modulates a carrier signal.

What is baseband and broadband signal?

Baseband transmission is a data transmission technique in which one signal needs the whole bandwidth of the channel to transfer the data. In contrast, broadband transmission is a transmission technology in which many signals with different frequencies send data across a single channel at the same time.
