The average value of a signal is its DC value. To receive and reproduce a signal with a non-zero DC component means that your antenna, as well as your receiver, has to have response to DC. To generate such a signal would require a static electric and/or magnetic field, which can't propagate. So it's not possible for a signal you're receiving to have a non-zero average value. ________________ Pure DC doesn't radiate, but there can be a DC component in the modulation of an RF wave that does radiate. An example is analog broadcast television, which has a highly asymmetric RF waveform. It can transmit a constant (DC) video value of any amplitude between reference black at 75% modulation and reference white at 12-1/2% modulation. RF |
