Wideband FM bandwidth estimation
In the book Modern Digital and Analog Communication Systems by B. P Lathi, there is a section for the estimation of WBFM bandwidth. First, the staircase approximation of $m(t)$ is constructed by the ...

Non-coherent FSK and Orthogonality and square-law detectors
This is a basic figure that explains how Non-Coherent FSK actually works. The incoming signal
$ r (t)=\sqrt{2 P}{Cos}(2 \pi t (\text{fc}+\text{fi})+\text{n(t)}$
where P denotes the signal power in ...

Instantaneous frequency, PLLs, frequency mixing, cross-correlation and the cross-correlation matrix
This is as much a request for comment and critique as anything else. I am looking at tracking how a system perturbs an input that is a (real) sinoid of varying frequency.

Help in identifying low speed image transmission protocol over RF
In the seventies I worked for Muirhead on press fax machines that used to transmit pictures over radio and landline as I recall two FM systems were used a carrier 800 Hz modulated +- 150 Hz and 1900Hz ...

Spectrum of WBFM signal for triangular message signal spectrum
We Know:
Frequency Modulated signal is given by:
$$s_{FM} (t)=A_{c} \sin \{ w_c t + 2 \pi k_f \int m(t) \, dt \}$$
Now,
if $ \quad m(t)= A_m \cos(w_m t)$ ,
i.e, its spectrum $M(f)$:
then,
$$s_{FM} (t)...

low-frequency amplitude with phase modulation of low Hz carrier
I am writing an FM/PM synthesizer, using Java. For the most part it works pretty well. What I am curious about is an attempt to use a low frequency tone as a carrier. By low frequency, I mean in the ...

Angle harmonic distortion in FM modulation
As you know the output form of FM modulator is something like this:
$$s(t)=A_{C}\cos(2\pi F_{c}t+\beta \sin(2\pi F_{m}t))$$
where $\beta$ is the phase deviation. I want to know why in this book the ...

Wideband FM generation problem
What I found out:
The order of the multiplier would be $n=5$.
The two LO frequencies can be 90 MHz and 80 MHz.
The bandwidth is given by $BW = 2(B_f+1)W $
Where W is the modulation bandwidth given ...
