    Which simple form of digital amplitude modulation is commonly used for transmitting binary data?
    Question

    Which simple form of digital amplitude modulation is commonly used for transmitting binary data?

    A.

    Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM)

    B.

    Frequency Shift Keying (FSK)

    C.

    Phase Shift Keying (PSK)

    D.

    On-Off Keying (OOK)

    Correct option is D

    On-Off Keying (OOK) is the simplest form of digital amplitude modulation, essentially a basic type of Amplitude Shift Keying (ASK). It is commonly used for transmitting binary data because it is simple to implement and inexpensive.
    Mechanism: A binary "1" is represented by the presence of a carrier signal (carrier is "ON" at full amplitude), and a binary "0" is represented by the absence of the carrier signal (carrier is "OFF" or at zero amplitude).
