It would be better if the carrier's phase didn't change, so you could see more clearly the effect of modulation

Carrier Wave[edit]

This picture is a very good example of what it's explaining, clear and concise. But one thing that might make it a little bit more clear, would be to show the original, unmodulated carrier wave at the top of the picture. Then the viewer can see how the 2 signals are "added together".

I understood the picture, but then I knew the subject anyway (was coming here looking for a particular detail of NTSC analogue broadcast). Just thinking adding the carrier might help a bit more.

The carrier's phase isn't changing, and the top of the picture isn't the carrier wave, it's the signal.

To avoid confusion, I believe the signal shouldn't be a wave, not necessarily binary either. For example, abruptly alternating between high, low and medium would allow the signal to be clearly distinct from the carrier waves. TZubiri (talk) 03:09, 10 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
