Abstract

A frequency modulator comprises an oscillator 1, modulating signal control means e.g. an amplifier 12 via which a modulating signal at 11 is fed to the oscillator to produce a corresponding frequency modulation on the output signal from the oscillator, a discriminator e.g. a monostable circuit 15 responsive to the frequency modulation for producing a corresponding amplitude signal and a comparator 18 responsive to the corresponding amplitude signal and to the modulating signal for providing a control signal which is fed back to control the gain provided by the signal control means 12 so as to maintain constant the amplitude of the amplitude signal with respect to the modulating signal whereby operation of the modulator is linearised. A phase sensitive detector 20 is responsive to the modulation signal squared at 21 to full wave rectify the error output of comparator, which is integrated at 22 to provide the gain control voltage. Optionally, an inverted and attenuated version of the modulation signal may be combined with the demodulated signal to obtain the error signal for the detector 20. <IMAGE>
