Abstract

A digital FM demodulating apparatus includes a phase detector for detecting the phase of an input digital FM signal; a differentiator for time differentiating the signal from the phase detector to get an instantaneous frequency of the input FM signal; an over-modulation detector for detecting an over-modulation occurence of the input FM signal according to the instantaneous frequency to generate a detection signal, and an over-modulation corrector for obtaining a demodulated output signal which is corrected so as to have no deterioration due to the over-modulation occurrence according to the detection signal from the over-modulation detector.
