What type of modulation is used in tv transmission?

Television transmission primarily utilizes amplitude modulation (AM) for the video signal and frequency modulation (FM) for the audio signal. In analog TV, the video is modulated using AM, while the accompanying audio is transmitted using FM to provide better sound quality and resistance to noise. In digital TV, various modulation techniques such as 8VSB (for ATSC) or COFDM (for DVB) are used to efficiently transmit data over the airwaves.
