Unity amplitude

From HandWiki

A sinusoidal waveform is said to have a unity amplitude when the amplitude of the wave is equal to 1.

x(t)=asin(θ(t))

where a=1. This terminology is most commonly used in digital signal processing and is usually associated with the Fourier series and Fourier transform sinusoids that involve a duty cycle, α, and a defined fundamental period, To.

Analytic signals with unit amplitude satisfy the Bedrosian theorem.[1]
