    Study Notes

    FM Concepts

    • Frequency modulation (FM) involves a constant amplitude carrier wave where frequency is modified by the modulating signal.
    • The carrier frequency adjusts according to the variations in the amplitude of the information signal.
    • Frequency deviation (fd) is defined as the change in carrier frequency caused by the modulating signal; it peaks when the modulating signal reaches its maximum amplitude.
    • Components of FM include:
      • Carrier: Constant frequency wave.
      • Modulating signal: Information signal that causes frequency changes.
      • FM signal: The resulting signal after modulation.
      • PM signal: Represents phase modulation.

    Frequency-Shift Keying (FSK)

    • FSK is a form of modulation where the carrier frequency shifts to a higher level when the modulating signal transmits a binary 1.
    • The frequency change correlates to the amplitude of the binary signal.
    • FSK is commonly utilized in:
      • Bluetooth headsets
      • Wireless speakers
      • Various industrial wireless applications

    Principles of Phase Modulation

    • Phase modulation (PM) modifies the phase of a constant-frequency carrier depending on the modulating signal.
    • Maximum frequency deviation in PM happens during rapid changes in the modulating signal.
    • For a sine wave modulating signal, this rapid change occurs when transitioning from positive to negative or vice versa.
    • Phase-Shift Keying (PSK) involves phase modulation of a carrier corresponding to binary data.
    • Modulation index (mf) is the ratio of frequency deviation to the frequency of the modulating signal.
    • Document reproduction, distribution, or transmission without prior written permission from Benguet State University (BSU) is strictly prohibited.
