Energy spectrum of a bandpass signal is concentrated around the carrier frequency fc.
(^) A time portion of a bandpass signal. Notice the carrier and the baseband envelope.
Bandpass Signal Spectrum
Time Waveform of Bandpass Signal
The waveformsg(t) ,x(t),R(t), and are all baseband waveforms. Additionally all of them exceptg(t) are real andg(t) is the Complex Envelope.
g(t) is the Complex Envelope ofv(t)
x(t) is said to be the In-phase modulation associated withv(t)
y(t) is said to be the Quadrature modulation associated withv(t)
R(t) is said to be the Amplitude modulation (AM) onv(t)
(t) is said to be the Phase modulation (PM) onv(t)
In communications, frequencies in the baseband signalg(t) are said to be heterodyned up tofc THEOREM: Any physical bandpass waveformv(t) can be represented as below

v(t)– bandpass waveform with non-zero spectrum concentrated nearf=f c =>c n – non-zero for ‘n’ in the range
The physical waveform is real, and using , Thus we have:
PROOF: Any physical waveform may be represented by the Complex Fourier Series
c n - negligible magnitudes for n in the vicinity of 0 and, in particular, cIntroducing an arbitrary parameter 0 =0 fc , we get
=>g(t)– has a spectrum concentrated nearf=0 (i.e.,g(t) - baseband waveform)

The complex envelope g(t) is a function of the modulating signal m(t) and is
given by: g(t)=g[m(t)] where g[• ] performs a mapping operation on m(t).
(^) Modulation is the process of encoding the source informationm(t) into a bandpass signal s(t). Modulated signal is just a special application of the
