Baseband

Baseband is a signal that has a near-zero frequency range (or, a narrow frequency "bandwidth") from close to zero hertz up to a higher cut-off frequency. An example of a baseband signal would be the audio signal output of a microphone, or a single musical note or synthesized tone.

Broadband

In telecommunications, broadband is wide bandwidth data transmission which transports multiple signals and traffic types. The medium can be coaxial cable, optical fiber, radio, twisted pair or satellite.

Baseband
