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

x ( t ) = a sin ( θ ( t ) ) {\displaystyle x(t)=a\sin(\theta (t))}

where a = 1 {\displaystyle 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 {\displaystyle \alpha } , and a defined fundamental period, T o {\displaystyle T_{o}} .

Analytic signals with unit amplitude satisfy the Bedrosian Theorem.
