1)In FM the information signal changes the frequency of the carrier wave without changing its amplitude or phase whereas In AM the information signal changes the amplitude of the carrier wave without changing its frequency or phase.
2)All transmitted power in FM is useful whereas in AM most of it is carrier which serves no useful purpose.
3)FM has no signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio. It is due to two reasons: firstly, there happens to be less noise at VHF band and Secondly, FM receivers are fitted with amplitude limiters which remove amplitude variation caused by noise, whereas AM has signal-to-noise ratio
4)Due to 'guard- band' there is hardly any adjacent-channel interference in FM whereas there is adjacent-channel interference in AM.
5)Since only transmitter frequency is modulated in FM, only fraction of a watt of audio power is required to produce 100% modulation as compared to high power required in AM.
6)FM requires much wider channel almost up to 20 times as large as needed by AM.
7)FM requires complex transmitting and receiving equipment as compared to AM.
8)Since FM reception is limited to only line of sight of propagation, area of reception for FM is much smaller as compared to AM.
9)FM is used for FM broadcasting & in TV for video signal whereas AM is used for AM broadcasting & in TV for sound signal.
10)FM transmission has higher fidelity as compared to AM transmission.

What does AM and FM stand for in radios?
AM - Amplitude Modulation FM - Frequency Modulation
Amplitude modulation and frequency modulation range in India?
Normal frequency range for amplitude modulation is 550kHz to 1610kHz
What are the advantages frequency modulation amplitude modulation?
Frequency modulation have some advantages over amplitude modulation, FM is not sensitive to the amplitude noise, and have high efficient use of transmitted power
What does AM and FM mean?
am is amplitude modulation, fm, frequency modulation
Why is amplitude modulation susceptible to noise but not frequency modulation?
because noise usually changes the amplitude not frequency.
Comparison of amplitude modulation and frequency modulation?
Amplitude of the (high frequency) Carrier signal is varied with respect to low frequency of message signal is called amplitude modulation. Frequency of the carrier signal is varied with respect to low frequency of message signal is called frequency modulation.
When modulation frequency is doubled modulation index also doubled in case of FM or pm or am?
In Frequency Modulation (FM), if the modulation frequency is doubled, the modulation index does not necessarily double; it depends on the amplitude of the modulating signal. In Amplitude Modulation (AM), the modulation index is defined as the ratio of the peak amplitude of the modulating signal to the carrier amplitude, so it remains unchanged with varying modulation frequency. For Phase Modulation (PM), similar to FM, the modulation index is influenced by the amplitude of the modulating signal and does not inherently double with the modulation frequency. Thus, modulation frequency and modulation index are not directly linked in this way for FM, PM, or AM.
What are FM and AM?
Amplitude Modulation (AM) Frequency Modulation (FM)
In FM does the amplitude remains constant?
In frequency modulation (FM) the amplitude does not remain constant. Instead, the amplitude varies according to the modulation index and the frequency of the modulating signal. This is in contrast to amplitude modulation (AM), where the amplitude of the carrier signal is modulated while the frequency remains constant.

Multiple choice question answer of AM modulation?
amplitude modulation is where we modulate our signal with a carrier signal amplitude changes but frequency remains constant in amplitude modulation
