Signal modulationBroader topic: It combines two signal properties to carry multiple bits per symbol.
Cable modemRelated: Cable systems use it to carry digital data within radio-frequency channels.
Phase modulationCompared with: It varies both amplitude and phase, unlike pure phase modulation.
BaudBroader topic: Its multiple constellation points let each symbol carry several bits.
