The same as the minimum number of data bits required to represent this
signal. The number of photons/data bits will vary depending on the
complexity, frequency and depth of modulation of the carrier wave.


I am talking about an analog carrier wave. In the analog realm, there
is no such thing as "bits".


In the analog realm, there is no such thing as photons as they are
discrete quanta.
