Abstract
In a frequency modulation system, the frequency modulation sensitivity of an oscillator is itself a function of the carrier frequency of the oscillator. The frequency modulation sensitivity is measured and stored for particular carrier frequencies, and subsequently used to control the amplitude of the modulation signal, so that when a frequency modulation signal is fed to the oscillator, a frequency deviation is obtained which is accurately related to the amplitude of the modulation signal.
