Delta Modulation - Output Signal Power

Output Signal Power

In delta modulation there is no restriction on the amplitude of the signal waveform, because the number of levels is not fixed. On the other hand, there is a limitation on the slope of the signal waveform which must be observed if slope overload is to be avoided. However, if the signal waveform changes slowly, there is nominally no limit to the signal power which may be transmitted.

Famous quotes containing the words output, signal and/or power:

    Lizzie Borden took an axe
    And gave her mother forty whacks;
    When she saw what she had done,
    She gave her father forty-one.
    —Anonymous. Late 19th century ballad.

    The quatrain refers to the famous case of Lizzie Borden, tried for the murder of her father and stepmother on Aug. 4, 1892, in Fall River, Massachusetts. Though she was found innocent, there were many who contested the verdict, occasioning a prodigious output of articles and books, including, most recently, Frank Spiering’s Lizzie (1985)

    By day thy warning ringing bell to sound its notes,
    By night thy silent signal lamps to swing.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    O to be a dragon
    a symbol of the power of Heaven—of silkworm
    size or immense; at times invisible. Felicitous phenomenon!
    Marianne Moore (1887–1972)
