On porte actuellement un grand intérêt aux méthodes de modulation mixtes, en particulier celle qui fournit des signaux composites à manipulation par déplacement de phase et d'amplitude multiple (appelée MDPA-M et parfois MAP, contraction de MDA-MDP), dont on peut représenter le signal modulé en phase et en amplitude dans un espace à deux dimensions. 1, record 2, French, - signal%20composite%20%C3%A0%20manipulation%20par%20d%C3%A9placement%20de%20phase%20et%20d%26rsquo%3Bamplitude%20multiple
