1.) Periodic signal

  • If a signal changes periodically, both in magnitude and direction at regular intervals, then the signal is called as periodic signal.
  • A periodic signal can be sinusoidal or pulsating in nature.
     

2.) Pulsating signal

  • If a current varies periodically from zero to maximum, back to zero, and then repeats, the signal is a pulsating signal.
     

3.) Direct signal

  • Direct current (DC) is an electric current that is uni-directional, so the flow of charge is always in the same direction.
