The main reasons for need of modulation are, The antenna needed for transmitting signals should have size at least /4, where, is the wavelength. The information signal, also known as ase and signal is of low frequency !and therefore the wavelength is high". #f we need to transmit such a signal directly, the size of the antenna will e very large and impossi le to uild. $ence direct transmission is not practical. The radiated power y an antenna is inversely proportional to the square of the wavelength. %o, if we use high frequency signals, the power radiated will e increased. #f we transmit the ase and signals directly, the signals from different transmitters will get mi&ed up and the information will e lost.
