The modulation index in AM can range from zero to any number. But
if distortion is to be avoided, then the index must not exceed 100%.
The modulation index formula in frequency modulation (FM) is given by the equation: β = Δf / fm, where β is the modulation index, Δf is the peak frequency deviation, and fm is the modulating frequency. Modulation index indicates how much the carrier frequency is being varied by the modulating signal in FM.
The percentage power saving when replacing an AM transmitter with modulation index of 0.5 with an SSBSC transmitter with the same modulation index would be approximately 93.75%. This is because SSBSC transmitters only transmit one sideband, while AM transmitters transmit both sidebands, resulting in less power usage and more efficiency.
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.
Amplitude modulation (AM) is a method of impressing data onto an alternating current waveform by varying its amplitude in relation to the data being sent. The main characteristics of AM include the modulation index, which determines the amount of variation in the carrier wave, and the sidebands that are created as a result of modulation. AM is susceptible to noise and interference due to its reliance on the amplitude of the signal.
The susceptibility of a material describes its response to an external electric field, while the nonlinear refractive index relates to the change in refractive index with intensity of light. In some cases, the nonlinear refractive index can be related to the third-order susceptibility of a material when considering nonlinear optical effects such as self-focusing or self-phase modulation.
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.

how modulation index varies for FM
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
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.
The values of amplitude modulation index is categorized as an objective type.
The modulation index formula in frequency modulation (FM) is given by the equation: β = Δf / fm, where β is the modulation index, Δf is the peak frequency deviation, and fm is the modulating frequency. Modulation index indicates how much the carrier frequency is being varied by the modulating signal in FM.
