Specialty Definition: BASEBAND

DomainDefinition

Computing

Baseband A transmission medium through which digital signals are sent without frequency shifting. In general, only one communication channel is available at any given time. Ethernet is an example of a baseband network. See also broadband. (1995-02-22). Source: The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing.

Electrical Engineering

The basic direct output signal in an intermediate frequency base obtained directly from a television camera, satellite television receiver, or video tape recorder. Source: European Union. (references)
 A transmission technique in which the signal is transmitted along a cable in its original digital form, one signal at a time, and is not changed by modulation techniques. Source: European Union. (references)

Post & Telecom

The band of frequencies which is modulated on to, or recovered from, the carrier in a wideband radio relay system, and which is occupied by television, multichannel telephony, telegraphy or similar signals and any pilot or other associated signals. Source: European Union. (references)

Specialty Definition: Baseband

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In telecommunication, the term baseband has the following meanings:

1. The original band of frequencies produced by a transducer, such as a microphone, telegraph key, or other signal-initiating device, prior to initial modulation.

Note 1: In transmission systems, the baseband signal is usually used to modulate a carrier.

Note 2: Demodulation re-creates the baseband signal.

Note 3: Baseband describes the signal state prior to modulation, prior to multiplexing, following demultiplexing, and following demodulation.

Note 4: Baseband frequencies are usually characterized by being much lower in frequency than the frequencies that result when the baseband signal is used to modulate a carrier or subcarrier.

2. In facsimile, the frequency of a signal equal in bandwidth to that between zero frequency and maximum keying frequency.
