Define modulation and transducer

Advertisements

उत्तर

Modulation:-

The process of superimposing a low frequency signal on a high frequency wave, which acts as a carrier wave for long distance transmission is known as modulation.

Transducer:-

A transducer is a device, which converts one form of energy into another.
