One characteristic of the FM process is that the noise is distributed such that it's lowest at the bottom frequency of the channel, and increases steadily as you move up the channel. Knowing this, pre- and de-emphasis is the clever trick we use to decrease the noise in the FM communications channel. Here's how it's done:
At the transmitter, pre-emphasis is applied to the baseband information before modulation ... the main channel L+R and L-R signals, plus any subcarriers that the station carries. Pre-emphasis is intentional distortion of the frequency response across the baseband that attenuates the low-frequency end, and progressively amplifies everything as you move up in frequency. The result of this operation is what actually gets transmitted.
The receiver is responsible for doing just the opposite. It applies de-emphasis immediately after demodulation ... it attenuates the high-frequency end of the baseband, and progressively amplifies everything as you move down in frequency.
If the pre- and de- are accurately matched, then the frequency response of the system winds up flat across the baseband, which is what we want. But ... by attenuating the higher frequencies, the receiver also changes the noise-content of the baseband, from a distribution that gets worse as you move up in frequency, to a distribution that's flat across the channel.

What is pre-emphasis and de-emphasis in FM?
In FM, the effect of noise is more on higher frequencies when compared with low frequencies. Therefore in order to have high signal-to-noise ratio(low noise), the high frequencies are amplified at the transmitter side and for compensation deemphasis(decreasing the amplitude of those boosted frequencies ) is done at receiver.
Can you get FM broadcasts on a VHF receiver?
If you're referring to commercial FM "music, news, and talk" broadcasts, the answer is 'No'.Those stations all transmit on carrier frequencies between 88 MHz and 108 MHz. Your VHF receivermost likely doesn't cover those frequencies.Even if it does overlap the commercial FM band, at the end of its dial, the VHF receiver won't deliveranything worth listening to.A). It's basically an AM receiver, not FM.B). It might deliver a recognizable voice from a narrowband FM signal, but it isn't designed toeven admit the comparatively wide-band commercial FM signals.
How to get a pcb of 5 band am receiver is it available?

What is the purpose of the FM transmitter?
A radio receiver is an electronic device that receives radio wave/signal and convert the information carried by them to a usuable form through speaker. The principal functions of a radio receiver are frequency selection, amplification and detection of signals which are been convert back to its original form through the help of radio speaker.
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.

Can a single personal FM receiver receive from two transmitters simultaneously?
Well yes if the carrier frequency are the same. <<>> The FM receiver will lock on to the strongest of the two signals.
Can you convert an am radio into FM?
Yes, you can. You need to make an FM receiver and attach it to the receiver coil. You'll need to install a switch so you can switch between them, as well.
