SSB stands for Single-Sideband modulation. It is a type of modulation used in radio communications to transmit information, such as an audio signal, by radio waves. SSB is a special form of amplitude modulation (AM) that utilizes only one of the two sidebands and suppresses the carrier frequency in transmission
. It is used primarily for two-way voice communication by ham radio operators, aircraft and air traffic control, ships at sea, military, and spy networks
. SSB offers the advantage of consuming less bandwidth compared to full double-sideband AM signals, allowing more signals to be transmitted simultaneously on the band without interference
