  • Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) is used to send large amounts of data by modulating the amplitude of two independent quadrature carrier waves onto a higher frequency carrier wave.
    Since these carrier waves are in quadrature they can be coherently demodulated to obtain the independent amplitudes.
    QAM allows for extremely large data rates across relatively small bandwiths.

    David, this is the greatest explanation on the topic i have found in years (I am 60). BTW your graphics are amazing too.

    I feel like one comment isn't enough to express how great this video is. If i could frame this explantation and hang it in my room i would do so in a heartbeat

    I am immensely greatful for this amazing explanation and visualisation of QAM. I have been wrecking my brain for days to understand this topic, but only now i feel like i can finally grasp it

    I'm pretty sure what you refer to as "Amplitude Modulation" in the beginning is actually Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK) in the context of the modulation signal being a digital signal (which it is here).

    What software do you use to make these dynamic graphs?
    Thank you very much!

  • @Z28videogates

    Another question - what is the minimum difference in power that the RX side would detect as a "different state" for power level? It would seem at more complex states like 1024QAM, if there were 10 different states, the percentage would not be linear like 10%, 20%, ... to 100% but rather in a way that puts it consistent with dBm out (and on the RX side, equal spacing of actual received levels). Would love to hear your thoughts on this. Thanks!

    Hi, I liked very much this video. In real world, how this could be implemented? I guess it is using op-amps. Is there some real world example you could show us? Thank you very much

  • @dominiquelarchey-wendling5829

    Could you explain how to get the filtering signal phase sync'd with the carrier signal ? Is frequency sync also an issue, because maybe there could be slight differences in the freq of the emitter and the receiver.

  • @Z28videogates

    @7:11 Can you please help - I can't find this info anywhere. What differences are they in WiFi in the actual real world? For example, if 1.00 = 10dBm, does .75 = 8.75dBm, .5 (half power) = 7dBm, 0.25 = 4dBm and 0.00 = ? Also, for more complex forms like 1024QAM, would it be 10 difference power level states? Thanks!!

    In 8:10 you say, we have 2 possible amplitudes but I think this is wrong. The amplitude in a constellation is the distance from the origin to a point. The plot you showed visualizes QPSK/4-QAM, where the amplitudes should always be the same.
