Morphology

remodulate = modulate (transparent) = re + modulate

The meaning is a regular and easily interpretable repetition of the action expressed by 'modulate'.

Etymology

Remodulate starts with re- meaning 'again' and the part modulate, which is linked to the common word mode and means 'to change the way a sound or signal behaves'. So, to remodulate is to 'change the modulation again' — to adjust a signal or setting one more time to get a clearer sound or picture.
