Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the primary purpose of a modulator in a communication system?
  • Step 1: Understand that communication systems need to send information over distances.
  • Step 2: Know that information can be in two forms: digital (like computer data) and analog (like sound waves).
  • Step 3: Realize that many communication channels (like radio waves) work better with analog signals.
  • Step 4: Learn that a modulator is a device that changes digital signals into analog signals.
  • Step 5: Conclude that the primary purpose of a modulator is to prepare digital information for transmission over these channels.
