The 7 pages that link to Phase modulation, each with the reason it gives.
Amplitude modulationCompared with: It changes carrier phase instead of the amplitude varied in AM.
Signal modulationBroader topic: It conveys information through shifts in the carrier’s phase.
Carrier waveBroader topic: It encodes information by changing the carrier’s phase.
DemodulationRelated: Its encoded phase changes require phase-sensitive recovery.
