Carrierless Amplitude/Phase Modulation
Carrierless Amplitude/Phase Modulation
(communications)CAP is a variation of Quadrature Amplitude Modulation, themodulation used by most existing modems in 1997. With CAP,the three channels (POTS, downstream data and upstream data)are supported by splitting the frequency spectrum. Voiceoccupies the standard 0-4 Khz frequency band, followed by theupstream channel and the high-speed downstream channel.
