  • Abstract
    A concise formula is derived for the probability distribution of the instantaneous frequency of an arbitrary bandpass signal plus Gaussian noise. The results are presented in terms of Marcum\´s Q -functions, with well-known properties. The results are applicable in the performance analysis of n -ary FM and PM data transmission systems. Illustrative examples of the application of the formula are worked out for binary FSK.
