BW of Angle-Modulated Waves

NBFM/NBPM

When kf is very small such that

, then
all higher order terms are negligible.
Then,
This is a linear modulation that has an
expression similar to that of the AM signal
with message signal a(t).
Because the BW of a(t) is B Hz, the BW of
is 2B Hz and it is called NBFM.
Similarly, NBPM is

WBFM

Actual BW can be written as,

Peak frequency deviation can be defined as,

or

So,
, known as Carsons Rule.
For a truly wideband case,
, then
Deviation ratio,

Then, Carsons Rule can be expressed as,

For a special case of tone-modulated signal this deviation
ratio is called the modulation index.

For PM wave, instantaneous frequency,

So,

In case of tone modulation, i.e.,

it can be shown that
