IMP TERMS IN FM

Noise Triangle
• When thermal noise with a constant spectral density is added to an FM signal,
it produces an unwanted deviation of the carrier frequency.
• The magnitude of this unwanted frequency deviation depends on the relative
amplitude of the noise with respect to the carrier.
• When this unwanted deviation is demodulated , it becomes noise if it has
frequency components that fall within the information frequency spectrum.
• The spectral shape of the demodulated noise depends on whether an FM or
PM demodulator is used.
• The noise volt at the o/p of a PM demodulator is constant with frequency,
where as in FM increases linearly with frequency.
• This is commonly called as noise triangle.(Fig.1)
• It can be seen that the demodulated noise volt is inherently higher for the
higher-modulating signal frequency.

Noise Triangle

The maximum deviation of amplitude carrier = Vn, as


shown in Fig2.
At the same time, noise vector is constantly changing
phase angle w.r.t carrier signal Vc which will change the
phase deviation (θ) of FM wave i.e. phase deviation θ of
FM changes due to noise. Thus, noise modulates the
carrier in terms of amplitude as well as phase.
Pre-emphasis and De-emphasis
• Noise triangle shows that ,in FM there is nonuniform distribution of noise.
• Noise at higher modulating frequency is higher than noise at lower frequency.
• Therefore SNR is also nonuniform , this is shown in fig. (a)
• SNR is lower at the high frequency ends of the triangle.
• To compensate for this, the H F modulating signals are emphasized or boosted
in amplitude in the transmitter prior to perform modulation. This is known as
pre-emphasis.
• To compensate this boost , H.F signals are attenuated or de-emphasized in the
receiver after demodulation is known as de-emphasis.
• Fig (b) shows the effect of pre-emphasis and de-emphasis on the SNR with

• In FM ,the noise has greater effect on the higher modulating frequency.
• Unfortunately, for most common analog signals (including voice, music,
and video signals), the high frequency components generally have lower
amplitudes than low and medium frequencies.
• Improvement in SNR can be made by:
• Increasing the value of modulating index for higher modulating
frequency (fm).
• This can be done by increasing the amplitude of modulating signal at
higher modulating frequency.
Pre-emphasis
• Pre-emphasis is high-pass filter (i.e differentiator)
• It provides constant increase in amplitude with an increase in frequency.
• The boosting is done according to prearranged curve. The amount of pre-
emphasis (in US) is 75 usec for TV .
• The break frq is determined by the RC or L/R time constant of the network.
• 1 1

De-emphasis
• De-emphasis is Low-pass filter (i.e integrator)
• The artificial boosting given to the higher modulating frequencies is
nullified at receiver by process called “De-emphasis”
• The 75usec de-emphasis circuit is standard and it is shown in fig . It
is LPF .75usec corresponds to a frequency response curve that is 3dB
down at a freq whose RC time constant is 75usec.
