To study and manipulate Frequency Modulation
OBJECTIVE
To study and manipulate Frequency Modulation using MATLAB.
EQUIPMENT
Computer System with MATLAB software Installed on it
THEORY
Demodulation
Many FM detector circuits exist. A common method for recovering the information signal
is through a Foster-Seeley discriminator or ratio detector. A phase-locked loop can be used as an
FM demodulator. Slope detection demodulates an FM signal by using a tuned circuit which has its
resonant frequency slightly offset from the carrier. As the frequency rises and falls the tuned circuit
provides a changing amplitude of response, converting FM to AM. AM receivers may detect some
FM transmissions by this means, although it does not provide an efficient means of detection for
FM broadcasts
TASK:
1. Write down the code for Frequency Modulation and demodulation in MATLAB.
2. Perform FM encoding of information in a carrier by varying the instantaneous frequency
of the wave
3. MATLAB Code for Frequency Modulation (FM) with Control of Modulation Index
(mf). Write some additional MATLAB code to find and plot the spectrum. Compare
the spectral values to those computed using Bessel functions.
