Kantajasignaaliin refers to the carrier signal in telecommunications and signal processing. A carrier signal is a high-frequency waveform that is used to transmit information, such as audio or data. The information is modulated onto the carrier signal, meaning that some characteristic of the carrier wave, such as its amplitude, frequency, or phase, is varied in accordance with the information signal. This modulated signal is then transmitted through a communication channel, such as airwaves or cables. At the receiving end, a demodulator extracts the original information signal from the modulated carrier wave.

The concept of a carrier signal is fundamental to many modern communication systems, including radio, television, and wireless networking. Without a carrier signal, it would be difficult or impossible to efficiently transmit information over long distances or through various mediums. The carrier's high frequency allows for a larger bandwidth, which enables the transmission of more data. Different modulation techniques are employed to encode information onto the carrier, each with its own advantages and disadvantages in terms of efficiency, noise immunity, and bandwidth requirements. Examples include Amplitude Modulation (AM) and Frequency Modulation (FM) in radio broadcasting, and more complex schemes like Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) used in digital communications. The choice of carrier frequency and modulation method depends on the specific application and the desired performance characteristics of the communication system.
