In this paper the fundamental formulas of variable frequency electric circuit theory are first developed. These are then applied to a study of the transmission, reception and detection of frequency modulated waves. A comparison with amplitude modulation is made and quantitative formulas are developed for comparing the noise‐to‐signal power ratio in the two modes of modulation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
