    We know that, ωi – ωc = |kf m(t)|max
    Δω = kf m(t)
    So frequency deviation will be amplitude of m (t) multiplied by kf which is given in fig. (B).
    Hence alternative (B) is the correct choice.

  1. Let message signal m(t) = cos (4π 103t) and carrier signal c(t) = 5 cos (2π 106)t are used to generate a FM signal. If the peak frequency deviation of the generated FM signal is three times the transmission bandwidth of the AM signal, then the coefficient of the term, cos [2π(1008 × 103t)t] in the FM signal would be—

    Given that, m(t) = cos (2π × 103t)
    c(t) = 5 cos (2π × 106t)
    and
    Δf = 3 (transmission bandwidth)

  1. A carrier wave of 1 MHz and amplitude 3V is frequency modulated by a sinusoidal modulating signal frequency of 500 Hz and peak amplitude of 1V. The frequency deviation is 1kHz. The peak level of the modulating waveform is changed to 2kHz. The expression for the new modulation waveform is—

    Since for FM modulated wave, frequency sensitivity constant Kf remains constant. So first we will calculate,

    Kf = Δf =
    1 × 103
    = 1kHz/V

    Given m(t) = sin (2000πt)
    Kf = 100 kHz/V
    Kp = 10 rad/V.
    for FM: BW = 2 (Δf + fm)
    Δf = |Kf Am|max = 1000 × 1 = 100 kHz
    fm = 1000 Hz or 1 kHz
    Now BW = 2(100 + 1) = 202 kHz
    for PM:

    Δf =
    |Kp d/dt m(t)|
    Hz

    Δf =
    10
    × 2000π = 10kHz

    BW = 2(Δf + fm) = 2 (10 + 1) = 22 kHz
    Hence alternative (B) is the correct choice.
