Summary

Description
English: The frequency spectrum of a typical AM or FM modulated radio signal, as it would be seen on a spectrum analyzer. The vertical axis is signal strength or voltage, the horizontal axis is frequency. It consists of a strong carrier wave (C) at the frequency fC of the radio transmitter. The information (modulation) carried by the signal is contained in two narrow frequency bands above and below the carrier frequency, called sidebands (SB). The sidebands are symmetrical about the carrier. In an audio radio broadcast the sidebands carry the audio signal that represents the sound waves. The portions of the sidebands close to the carrier contain the low audio frequencies, while the portions further from the carrier contain the high audio frequencies. Therefore the sidebands tend to fall off farther from the carrier, and also close to the carrier at points which represent bass frequencies below 20 Hz, the lower human hearing limit.

This file is translated using SVG <switch> elements. All translations are stored in the same file! Learn more.

For most Wikipedia projects, you can embed the file normally (without a lang parameter). The Wikipedia will use its language if the SVG file supports that language. For example, the German Wikipedia will use German if the SVG file has German. To embed this file in a particular language use the lang parameter with the appropriate language code, e.g. [[File:Modulated radio signal frequency spectrum.svg|lang=en]] for the English version. Do not specify a lang parameter if it is not needed. The parameter may prevent the use of a subsequent translation.

To translate the text into your language, you can use the SVG Translate tool. Alternatively, you can download the file to your computer, add your translations using whatever software you're familiar with, and re-upload it with the same name. You will find help in Graphics Lab if you're not sure how to do this.
