Modulation
 Modulation is the process of encoding information from a message
source in a manner suitable for transmission. It generally involves
translating a baseband message signal (called the source) to a
bandpass signal at frequencies that are very high when compared to
the baseband frequency.
Factors That Influence the Choice of Digital
Modulation
 Low bit error rates at low received signal-to-noise ratios,
 Performs well in multipath and fading conditions,
 Occupies a minimum of bandwidth,
 Easy and cost-effective to implement.

*trade-offs are made when selecting a digital modulation
