Group delay The group delay is a convenient measure of the linearity of the phase with respect to frequency in a modulation system. For a modulation signal (passband signal), the information carried by the signal is carried exclusively in the wave envelope. Group delay therefore operates only with the frequency components derived from the envelope.
