Quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) ([pic] /ˈkwɑːm/ or /ˈkæm/ or simply "Q-A-M") is both an analog and a digital modulation scheme. It conveys two analog message signals‚ or two digital bit streams‚ by changing (modulating) the amplitudes of two carrier waves‚ using the amplitude-shift keying (ASK) digital modulation scheme or amplitude modulation (AM) analog modulation scheme. The two carrier waves‚ usually sinusoids‚ are out of phase with each other by 90° and are thus called quadrature carriers
