Abstract
An FM stereo demodulator having improved separation and distortion characteristics comprising a high-frequency pulse signal which is modulated by a sinusoidal subcarrier signal produced in accordance with a stereo pilot signal. The high-frequency pulse signal is multiplied with a composite signal at a multiplier so as to reproduce left and right signals without frequency components of noise. Constructed accordingly, the invention advantageously obviates the use of a low-pass filter which injects delay characteristics and reduces gain of the composite signal from an FM demodulator.
