Look up what a quadrature modulator does. It's just a multiplication
with e^{j2\pi f_{carrier}t}, in the end.
Your constant signal s(t) = c const. would hence be transmitted as
c·e^{j2\pi f_{carrier}t}
whereas a complex sinusoid of frequency f and amplitude a,
s(t) = a·e^{j2\pi f t) would be transmitted as
a·e^{j2\pi f t)·e^{j2\pi f_{carrier}t} = a·e^{j2\pi (f+f_{carrier})t}
so, identical to the constant signal, just at a different frequency.
Best regards,
Marcus
