moduliuoja

Moduliuoja is an Estonian verb meaning to modulate. It denotes the act of altering a signal, parameter, or system input in a controlled manner to convey information, shape a signal, or influence behavior.

In telecommunications and signal processing, moduliuoja describes changing a carrier signal's amplitude, frequency, or phase according to a data stream. Common modalities include amplitude modulation, frequency modulation, and phase modulation, as well as various digital schemes such as ASK, FSK, PSK, and QAM.

In audio engineering and music, modulation is used to implement effects such as vibrato, tremolo, and chorus, and to modulate synthesis parameters. The equipment that performs the action is a modulator, and the process is modulatsioon.

In control engineering and instrumentation, moduliuoja covers modulation of control signals to regulate processes, such as speed, power, or voltage, often to smooth responses or optimize transmission. The term is widely used in Estonian-language textbooks, papers, and manuals on communication, music technology, and control engineering.

Etymology and usage: The term aligns with the international concept of modulation (modulatsioon) and is common in Estonian technical vocabulary and academic writing.
