amplitude modulation (AM)
A form of radio transmission. Broadcasts on the short-, medium-, and long-wave bands are transmitted by amplitude modulation. The sound signals to be transmitted are superimposed on a constant-amplitude radio signal called the carrier. The resulting modulated radio signal varies in amplitude according to the strength of the signal.
