What determines the amount of deviation of an fm signal?

FM or frequency modulation is a means to vary the frequency withing a set basic frequency and transmit it. FM radio demodulate the frequency extracting the signal that made the frequency shift at the source.


What is the need for limiter in FM receiver?

The limiter clips the top and bottom of the FM signal to remove any AM signal or static that was picked up. This prevents the FM discriminator from seeing those unwanted signals and inadvertently converting them to audio, scrambling the intended audio signal. Simply put, the limiter blocks interference and static making FM reception very clean.


What is the difference between FM transmitters?

Fro transmitting FM signals from one point to another,one need to have a full system that transforms your signal. The FM transmitter and FM modulator are two parts of this system and they are both necessary in making the system function as desired. The transmitter is the part that dissipates the FM signal into the air so that it can be received by antennas somewhere else. The FM modulator, on the other hand, is responsible for piggybacking the signal onto the carrier signal. Refer american-writers.org for more information.


Why power amplifier used in FM transmitter?

Amplifier is used in an FM transmitter to increase the level of a signal suitable for transmission


Why we need high power to generate AM signal and low power to generate FM signal?

The reason FM has lower power and AM has higher power is because the more power that an AM signal has, the farther it will go, but FM does not work that way. AM waves can bounce off of the atmosphere, especially at night. This is the reason that you can hear AM stations from far away at night. FM, on the other hand, can't bounce. FM waves only go in a straight line from the tower and no matter how much power you transmit with, an FM wave will only go a short distance. AM Waves can travel through trees and buildings, and FM can't.

Difference between FM and PM?

frequency of the carrier is varied in accordance to the message signal in FM. Fm receivers are less complex. in Fm lower frequencies produce variation to the modulation index. phase of the carrier is varied in accordance to the message signal in PM. Pm receivers require proper synchronization so it is complex. Modulation index is independent of audio frequency


Differentiate FM signal from AM signal?

FM = Frequency Modulation; AM = Amplitude Modulation; each being a technique by which the speech signal is imprinted onto the carrier signal (the one to which you tune the radio). FM is a higher frequency than AM. FM also only uses the 2.7hz upper side band of the frequency while AM utilizes the entire 6hz both the LSB, USB and the .6hz carrier wave. That allows AM to travel farther than a FM signal.


Why FM is preferred over pm in broadcasting applications?

In broadcasting, FM (frequency modulation) is much more relevant, as it describes a type of radio signal. PM (post meridian) describes time of day. Although, in general, broadcast advertisers prefer PM times over AM.If you meant to ask about FM vs. AM radio signals, FM is preferable because:it offers higher-fidelity soundit allows for stereo signalsit requires higher bandwidth than AM (which makes FM more expensive to produce), and therefore offers better quality sound by reducing interference and background noiseit offers reduced signal fadingmodern tuners have the ability to differentiate between 2 or more signals sharing the same channel and filter out all but the strongeststation numbers are shorter and easier to remember


How do you convert FM to PM and PM to FM waves?

In order to convert fm to pm, the modulation index must be set to be independent instead of having a variation. Then the receivers must be properly synchronized.


What is a changing electric current that carries information is called a?

I beleive what you are referring to is a modulated signal which can be either amplitude, frequency or phase modulation. As with radio signals carrying information: AM, FM or PM.


Why you convert FM signal to IF frequency?

Mix it with a local oscillator whose frequency is (the IF frequency) away from the frequency of the FM signal you're interested in.


Why are FM tones used in ASSR?

boz there is lesas interferance to the signal as a signal travels...............


How is FM transmitted?

the digital signal is converted to analog signal after using by transmitted antenna


Why is amplitude of demodulated FM signal much less than modulated signal?

because demodulated FM is an audio signal, which the frequency is much smaller that is why it can be transmitted alone. It need carrier which has large frequency. Modulated signal is an audio signal + carrier that is why the amplitude is higher.


Why FM is good than am in communication?

The FM signal is more amune to static in the atmosphere than AM signals.
