 Angle Modulation
Consider the carrier with variable phase:

𝑥 𝑡 = 𝐴𝑐 𝑐𝑜𝑠 𝜔𝑐 𝑡 + 𝜃𝑐 (𝑡)
Instantaneous phase angle: the argument of carrier
signal:
𝜙𝐼 𝑡 = 𝜔𝑐 𝑡 + 𝜃𝑐 (𝑡)

• Phase modulation (PM) changes 𝜙𝐼 𝑡 through the

change of 𝜃𝑐 (𝑡).

• Frequency modulation (PM) changes 𝜙𝐼 𝑡 through the

change of 𝜔𝐼 𝑡 .

𝜃𝑐 (𝑡) is proportional to 𝑚(𝑡):

𝜃𝑐 𝑡 = 𝑘𝑃𝑀 𝑚(𝑡)

𝑘𝑃𝑀 is known as phase sensitivity.

• If 𝑚(𝑡) is constant:
𝜃𝑐 𝑡 = 𝐾 𝜔𝐼 𝑡 = 𝜔𝑐
• If 𝑚(𝑡) is linear:
𝜃𝑐 𝑡 = 𝐴 + 𝐵𝑡 𝜔𝐼 𝑡 = 𝜔𝑐 + 𝐵
𝜔𝐼 𝑡 is allways constant.
Then:
𝜑𝑃𝑀 𝑡 = 𝐴𝑐 𝑐𝑜𝑠 𝜔𝑐 𝑡 + 𝑘𝑃𝑀 𝑚(𝑡)

• AM envelope is variable, whereas in PM and FM are
constant.
• Zero-crossing are equidistant in AM.
• PM are FM non-linear : more complex spectrum.
• Wider bandwidth for FM.
• Angle modulation has more immunity to noise.

 Analytic signal
Given the real 𝑥 𝑡 , the analytic signal 𝑥𝑎 (𝑡) is defined as
follows:
𝑥𝑎 𝑡 = 𝑥 𝑡 + 𝑗𝑥(𝑡)ො
Imaginary component of the analytic signal 𝑥𝑎 𝑡 is the Hilbert
transform 𝑥 𝑡 .
Fourier transform of 𝑥𝑎 𝑡 is:
2𝑋 𝜔 , 𝜔>0
𝑋𝑎 𝜔 = 𝑋 𝜔 + 𝑗 −𝑗𝑠𝑔𝑛(𝜔) 𝑋 𝜔 = ቊ
0, 𝜔<0
Example :
Find the analytic signal for 𝑥 𝑡 = cos(𝜔𝑡):
𝑥𝑎 𝑡 = cos 𝜔𝑡 + 𝑗 sin 𝜔𝑡 = 𝑒 𝑗𝜔𝑡
 Complex envelope
Complex envelope is defined as follows:

𝑥𝑒 𝑡 = 𝑥𝑎 𝑡 𝑒 −𝑗𝜔𝑐 𝑡

Note that 𝑥𝑒 𝑡 is a complex number with real and imaginary

parts. In rectangular form:

𝑥𝑒 𝑡 = 𝑥𝐼 𝑡 + 𝑗𝑥𝑄 𝑡 = 𝑥𝐼 𝑡 + 𝑗𝑥ෝ𝐼 (𝑡)

Where 𝑥𝐼 𝑡 and 𝑥𝑄 𝑡 are known as phase and quadrature

components of 𝑥(𝑡), respectively
 Natural envelope
𝑥 𝑡 = ℝ𝑒 𝑥𝑎 𝑡 = ℝ𝑒 𝑥𝑒 𝑡 𝑒 −𝑗𝜔𝑐 𝑡
Then:
𝑥 𝑡 = ℝ𝑒 𝑥𝐼 𝑡 + 𝑗𝑥𝑄 𝑡 𝑒 −𝑗𝜔𝑐 𝑡
= 𝑥𝐼 𝑡 cos 𝜔𝑐 𝑡 + 𝑥𝑄 𝑡 sen 𝜔𝑐 𝑡
This is a signal LSB AM.

The natural envelope is the magnitude of complex envelope and

analytic signal:
