““When modulation frequency is doubled, the modulation index is halved, and the modulating voltage remains constant””
About This Quote
This interpretation was drafted with AI assistance. It is one reading of the quote, not the author's own explanation.
Doubling the carrier frequency cuts the modulation index in half while the input voltage stays the same, affecting signal depth.
In simple terms: Higher frequency reduces modulation depth if voltage unchanged.
Adjust voltage to maintain desired modulation depth.
