Source encoding compresses the digital signal via source coding to
reduce redundancy and minimize bandwidth requirements.
Channel encoding: extends the digitally encoded signal,
incorporating intentional redundancy to enable error correction
caused by noise or interference during transmission.
Modulation: is the process of varying one or more properties of a
periodic waveform, called the carrier signal, with a separate signal
called the modulation signal that typically contains information to
be transmitted.
