Frequency Deviation Formula Elements

Variables
Frequency Deviation
Frequency Deviation in FM is defined as the way to describe the difference between the minimum and maximum extent of a frequency modulated signal and the carrier frequency.
Symbol: Δf
Measurement: FrequencyUnit: Hz
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Frequency Sensitivity
Frequency Sensitivity is the dependence of the critical amplitude of the signal upon its frequency and a resonance between the intrinsic oscillations of a neuron and the signal.
Symbol: Kf
Measurement: FrequencyUnit: Hz
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Peak Amplitude of Message
Peak Amplitude of Message is the maximum positive or negative deviation of a waveform from its zero reference level in a message signal.
Symbol: Am(peak)
Measurement: Electric PotentialUnit: V
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
