In light of these definitions, we see that BASK, BPSK, and BFSK are
special cases of amplitude modulation, phase modulation, and
frequency modulation, respectively.
BASK, BPSK, and BFSK share a common feature: all three of them
are examples of a band-pass process.
In the analog communications, the sinusoidal carrier is commonly
defined as in equation(1).
On the other hand, in the digital communications literature, the
usual practice is to assume that the carrier has unit energy measured
over one symbol (bit) duration. Specifically, we may define the
carrier amplitude as

Where Tb is the bit duration

Then, multiplying by the sinusoidal carrier c(t) with the phase set
equal to zero for convenience of presentation, we get the BASK
wave

Exercises
1. The binary sequence 11100101 is applied to an ASK modulator. The bit
duration is microsecond and the sinusoidal carrier wave used to represent
symbol 1 has a frequency equal to 7 MHz.
a. Find the transmission bandwidth of the transmitted signal.
b. Plot the waveform of the transmitted ASK signal.
c. Assume that the line encoder and the carrier-wave oscillator are
controlled by a common clock.
2. Repeat Problem 1 above, assuming that the line encoder and the carrier-wave
generator operate independently of each other. Comment on your results.
