Phase modulation is one of the two principal forms of angle modulation, together with frequency modulation the phase of a carrier signal is modulated to follow the changing signal level amplitude. In the days of land line modems it was used to achieve bit rates of 9600. Frequency and phase modulation encode information in the temporal characteristics of the transmitted signal, and consequently they are robust against amplitude noise and amplifier nonlinearity. This video lecture explains different types of continuous wave modulation like amplitude modulation am, frequency modulation fm and phase modulation pm.
The first practical system was put forward in 1936 as an alternative to am in an effort to make radio transmissions more resistant to noise.
