qImage6581a12667308620a9dc6d86

If a current varies periodically from zero to maximum, back to zero, and then repeats, the signal is a pulsating signal.

Sinusoidal signal

If a current changes periodically, both in magnitude and direction, at regular intervals, then the signal is sinusoidal.

Direct signal

Direct current (DC) is an electric current that is uni-directional, so the flow of charge is always in the same direction.
