Angle modulation, in which the instantaneous phase angle of a sine-wave carrier is caused to depart from the carrier angle by an amount proportional to the instantaneous amplitude of the modulating wave. 3, record 1, English, - phase%20modulation
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
PM is similar to FM, in fact, crystal-controlled FM transmitters use a PM signal initially and then transform it into FM before it reaches the antenna. 4, record 1, English, - phase%20modulation
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
PM is used essentially for telephony(analog signals). It bears some resemblance with phase shift keying(PSK) which is used for telegraphy or data(digital signals). 4, record 1, English, - phase%20modulation

Modulation angulaire d'une onde porteuse sinusoïdale, dont la phase de l'onde modulée diffère de celle de l'onde porteuse, d'une quantité proportionnelle à l'amplitude instantanée du signal modulant. 4, record 1, French, - modulation%20de%20phase
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
La modulation de phase est semblable à la modulation de fréquence. Certains émetteurs pilotés au quartz sont d'abord modulés en phase à la sortie de l'oscillateur pilote et, avec multiplication de fréquence, on obtient de la modulation de fréquence à l'antenne. 5, record 1, French, - modulation%20de%20phase
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 2 OBS
La modulation de phase est exploitée surtout en radiotéléphonie (modulation analogique). La modulation à déplacement de phase est fondée sur les mêmes principes mais s'applique à la modulation numérique seulement : par ex., télégraphie, transmission de données. 5, record 1, French, - modulation%20de%20phase
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 3 OBS
modulation de phase : terme normalisé par la Commission électronique internationale (CEI) et l'AFNOR. 5, record 1, French, - modulation%20de%20phase
