FREQUENCY SHIFT KEYING (FSK)

Frequency modulation in which the modulating signal shifts the output frequency between predetermined values. ( 188 ) Note 1: Usually, the instantaneous frequency is shifted between two discrete values termed the " mark " and "space" frequencies. This is a noncoherent form of FSK. Note 2: Coherent forms of FSK exist in which there is no phase discontinuity in the output signal. Synonyms frequency-shift modulation, frequency-shift signaling .
