The values of amplitude modulation index is categorized as an objective type.
amplitude modulating signal
the maximum amplitude of carrier wave varied with respect to instantaneous values of message signal is called amplitude modulation
A(m)/A(c)=0.5 is known as 50% modulation index. where, A(m)=amplitude of message signal A(c)=amplitude of carrier signal
In amplitude modulation, modulation depth refers to the ratio of the unmodulated carrier amplitude to the amplitude deviation for which the modulated carrier wave reaches its minimum value. If this minimum value is zero, the modulation depth is 100%.For amplitude modulation,modulation depth = (a-b)/(a+b),wherea is the unmodulated carrier amplitude, andb is the minimum amplitude deviation.The modulation depth ratio is also referred to as the modulation index.

mf=(K*Am)/fm where K: is a proprtionality coefficient Am: is amplitude of the message fm=frequency of modulation
Not sure what type of modulation you are looking for, but there are two that can be manipulated, either individually or in conjunction:Frequency modulation index refers to the relation between the sine wave frequency (sine_freq) and the triangle (or saw-tooth) wave frequency (triang_freq).The frequency modulation index is equal to ((triang_freq)/(sine_freq)).Amplitude modulation index refers to the relation between the sine wave amplitude (sine_amp) and the triangle (or saw-tooth) wave amplitude (triang_amp).The amplitude modulation index is equal to ((sine_amp)/(triang_amp)).Varying the modulation index (normally by varying the frequency or amplitude of the triangle wave form) changes that respective modulation index.From personal experience, an appropriate amplitude modulation index for an SPWM waveform should be around 0.8(that is, if the triangle has an amplitude of 10, the sine would have an amplitude of 8). This index should never be equal to 1 (one); it should always be less. A.K.A.: the triangle-wave amplitude should always be greater than the sine-wave.On the other hand, a triangle-wave frequency much greaterthan the sine-wave frequency makes an SPWM that in turn generates a "cleaner" synthesized sine-wave in the H-bridge you are probably using. Try different freq. modulation indexes, but an index of at least 10 should be used (preferably somewhere around 100 if you want a good SPWM). That is, if the sine-wave frequency is 60 Hz, the triangle-wave frequency should be above 600, preferably 6,000 or more. Complications in the filter design in the "output" of the H-bridge will vary greatly when playing around with the frequency modulation index. That being said, keeping the amplitude modulation index at a static 0.8, and playing around with the triangle-wave frequency should be your best bet.
Modulation index is also called as Modulation depth. The modulation index of a modulation scheme describes by how much the modulated variable of the carrier signal varies around its unmodulated level.

Modulation Index is the ratio of the maximum deviation frequency to the frequency of modulation. In other words it is the ratio of the spread in frequency spectrum to the frequency that was used to modulate the carrier. For FM, modulation index is given by the formula mf= df/f where, mf=modulation index for FM df=difference in carrier frequency f=frequency of the signal
