The "information signal", either digital/analogue, which users want to have transmitted from one point to another, describes which of the following terms?

The term that describes the "information signal," whether it is digital or analog, is recognized as a baseband signal. A baseband signal contains the original information to be transmitted and is typically not modulated onto a higher frequency signal; it is the raw form of data that is meant to be sent directly over a communication medium.

In most telecommunications systems, baseband signals are usually used in systems that do not require modulation for transmission, such as in wired communication setups. This contrasts with concepts like a modulated signal, which refers specifically to a signal that has been altered in order to encode the information onto a carrier frequency for transmission over distance.

A carrier signal, on the other hand, is a frequency wave that can be modulated to carry the information contained in the baseband signal. Binary signals refer specifically to signals that represent data in binary form (0s and 1s), and while they can be an example of a baseband signal, the broader definition of a baseband signal includes both digital and analog information signals. Therefore, the baseband signal is the comprehensive term that encompasses both digital and analog forms of information as they are prepared for transmission.
