Baseband has several usages:
1) In telecommunications, baseband is a term used to describe a
telecommunication system in which information is carried in digital
form on a single unmultiplexed signal channel on the
telecommunications medium. This usage pertains to a baseband network
such as Ethernet and token ring local area networks.
2) Same as the above, but allowing that the information could also be
carried in analog form.
3) Baseband is any frequency band on which information is
superimposed, whether or not the band is multiplexed and information
is sent on subbands. In this usage, there is sometimes the meaning
that the frequency band is not shifted to some other frequency band
but remains at its original place in the electromagnetic spectrum.
