Frequency modulation (FM) is considered a form of nonlinear modulation. In FM, the frequency of the carrier wave varies in accordance with the amplitude of the input signal, which can lead to a complex relationship between the input and output signals. This nonlinearity is characterized by the generation of sidebands and additional frequency components that are not present in the original signal. Thus, FM does not maintain a direct proportionality between input and output, distinguishing it from linear modulations like amplitude modulation (AM).
Analog Pulse modulation is discreet in time but the formation is transmitted in continuous form. In digital pulse modulation, not only the time axis is discreet but the information is also in digital form. Examples of Analog PM are PAM and PTM i.e pulse amplitude and pulse time modulations respectively. Examples of Digital PM are PCM and PDM i.e pulse code and pulse delta modulations respectively.
In amplitude modulation (AM), the modulation index (m) represents the ratio of the peak amplitude of the modulating signal to the peak amplitude of the carrier signal. The transmitted power in an AM signal increases with the modulation index, as higher modulation indices lead to greater variations in the carrier's amplitude. Specifically, the total transmitted power can be expressed as a function of the carrier power and the modulation index, with more power being allocated to sidebands as m increases. However, beyond a certain point, further increasing the modulation index can lead to distortion, as the signal may exceed the linear range of the amplifier.

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.

frequency modulation is non linear due to cross over term.
Methods of amplitude modulation can be put in the two categories namely Linear modulation methods and Square law modulation methods. Linear modulation method utilizes the linear region of the current voltage characteristics of the amplifying device that is transistor or electron tube. Square law modulation method utilizes the square law region of some current voltage characteristics of a diode or transistor or electron tube. A large number of linear modulation methods have been devised and have been used to varying degree. These methods are namely linear shunt plate modulation or anode choke modulation, linear series plate modulation, grid bias modulation, cathode modulation, suppressor grid modulation, screen grid modulation, collector modulation. Square law modulation circuits make use of non linear current voltage characteristics of diodes or triodes and are in general suited for use at low voltages. Important square law modulation methods are square law diode modulation and balanced modulator.
angle modulation is called non linear modulation because the information is stored in phase of the carrier signal
Analog Pulse modulation is discreet in time but the formation is transmitted in continuous form. In digital pulse modulation, not only the time axis is discreet but the information is also in digital form. Examples of Analog PM are PAM and PTM i.e pulse amplitude and pulse time modulations respectively. Examples of Digital PM are PCM and PDM i.e pulse code and pulse delta modulations respectively.
The reason it is called exponential (non-linear) modulation is that the information is encoded within the phase of carrier.
There are two types of modulations. They are amplitude modulation and frequency modulation. In AM, amplitude of the signal is modified. In FM, frequency is getting modulated. Frequency modulated with carrier waves are transmitted and received by receivers without any distortion.
Modulations was created in 2000.
Amplitude modulations can be used to transmit binary data. Remember AM modulation is done using a single carrier frequency, and increasing or decreasing the amplitude. A high amplitude would be considered a '1', and a low amplitude would be considered a '0' (typically).
Waves can be varied (modulated) by either changing amplitude (amplitude modulation AM) or changing frequency (wavelength) (frequency modulation FM). The modulations are used to carry the information signal.
It is a device or electronic circuit that changes the frequency of an oscillator according to the amplitude of modulating signal. For instance, if the modulation is linear, the modulator changes the frequency proportional to the amplitude of the modulating voltage.
