    Angle Modulation: Modulation Where The Angle of The Carrier Is Varied From Its Reference Value

    Uploaded by

    Igho Silva
    Angle modulation is a modulation technique where the angle of the carrier wave is varied according to the modulating signal, and can take two forms: phase modulation and frequency modulation. Phase modulation varies the phase angle of the carrier proportionally to the amplitude of the modulating signal, while frequency modulation varies the frequency of the carrier according to the instantaneous amplitude of the modulating signal. FM has advantages over AM such as less noise, operating in the VHF range which is less noisy, and capture effect; but disadvantages include more complicated and costly equipment, limited reception to line-of-sight, and requiring a much wider channel bandwidth.

    Angle Modulation

     modulation where the angle of the


    carrier is varied from its reference
    value
    Two forms:

    1. Phase Modulation (PM)


    - the phase angle of a carrier is
    being varied by an amount
    proportional to the modulating signal
    amplitude
    - also known as Indirect FM
    2. Frequency Modulation (FM)
    - the frequency of the carrier is
    varied according to the
    instantaneous amplitude of the
    modulating signal
    Advantages of FM over AM
    1. FM reception is less noisy in
    comparison to AM.
    - This is because the man-made
    noises and atmospheric noises
    produce only amplitude variation and
    amplitude is constant in FM. Also,
    most FM receivers are fitted with
    amplitude limiter.
    2. FM broadcast operates in the VHF
    range (88 to 108 MHz).
    - This happens to be less noisy
    because of space-wave propagation.

    3. Rejection of interfering signals


    because of “Capture Effect”.
    Disadvantages of FM

    1. FM transmitting and receiving


    equipment is more complicated,
    much costly as compared to AM.

    2. The area of reception is limited


    only to line-of-sight.
    3. A much wider channel is required
    for FM.
    - Excessive use of spectrum space.

    AM: bandwidth = 9 kHz


    (Philippines)
    FM: bandwidth = 200 kHz
