Abstract :
By factorizing a finite sum of harmonics, an expression is obtained for an FM demodulator output when the modulating signal is a simple sinusoid and the RF filter is an ideal bandpass filter. Using this result, harmonic distortions and the signal-to-distortion ratio are defined and computed; several curves are drawn to show the variation of these quantities in terms of the modulation index and the normalized bandwidth.
