FM radio was invented by Edwin H. Armstrong in the 1930s for the specific purpose of
overcoming the interference (static) problem of AM radio, to which it is relatively immune. At
the same time, greater fidelity was made possible by spacing stations further apart. Instead of 10
kHz apart, they are 200 kHz part.
FM refers to frequency modulation, and occurs on VHF airwaves in the frequency range
of 88 to 108 MHz everywhere (except Japan). Japan uses the 76 to 90 MHz band. FM stations
are much more popular in economically developed regions, such as Europe and the United
States, especially since higher sound fidelity and stereo broadcasting became common in this
format.

Process of varying the instantaneous frequency of a carrier according to the amplitude of
the modulating signal is called frequency.
&$%?#
Modulation index is defined as the ratio of freq deviation to the modulating signal frequency
Modulation index = ¨f / f m
For a given freq deviation, the modulation index is inversely proportional to modulating freq.
Example if modulating freq is 100 Hz, and freq deviation is 75 kHz, the modulation index will
be 750. But if modulating freq is increased to 15 kHz, modulation index will become as low as 5.
Thus modulation index varies over a large range as frequency is varied.

Since in fm radio broadcasting, freq deviation is 75 kHz and highest modulating signal freq is
15 kHz, by Carson¶s rule
BW = 2 (75 + 15)
= 180 kHz

A guard band of 10 kHz is provided on each side to prevent adjacent channel interference
thus total channel bandwidth is 200 kHz.

Fm has a much better noise performance than AM. The channel noise affects the signal in
two ways:-
In FM the noise still adds to the signal, but because the information resides in frequency
changes instead of amplitude changes, the noise tends to have less of an effect.
Air has adopted 50 U sec curve which gives about 13 db boost at 15 kHz $@AB
@4) illustrate the effect of pre-emphasis on the modulating signal frequency response at the
transmitter @AB@A show the effect of de-emphasis on the modulating signal and noise at
the fm receiver. The de-emphasis cancels out the pre-emphasis on the signal and also attenuates
the noise at the receiver
" ##$
There are several advantages of Frequency modulation some of them are given below:-
° FM broadcasts operate in the VHF and UHF ranges in which there happens to be less
noise than in the MF and HF ranges occupied by AM bands.
° Due to the use of space wave propagation in which the range of operation is limited to
slightly more than line of sight, it is possible to operate several independent transmitters
with much less co-channel interference.
° Stereo transmission is possible with FM due to its wider bandwidth.
° Additional information such as RDS, SCA can be sent along with the stereo signal.

In the control room the analog output from main studio, back up studio are taken and
given to the switcher. Then the AES/EBU signals are fed to codecs. After this the digital outputs
are transmitted through LEASED- LINE, V-SAT, ISDN modems. Where for 128 KHz ISDN
modem is used, for 256 KHz VSAT modem and for 2MBPS LEASED LINE modem is used.
Again several equipments are used for switching purposes in the control room that¶s why it is
also called machine room.

A leased line is a fixed, dedicated, digital, point to point line for data transfer. The term
"leased line" is a general description of a point to point circuit from a data carrier supplier. These
circuits can be supplied at various speeds and be presented at your site with various interfaces. A
leased line is not connected to a telephone exchange and does not provide DC power, dial tone,
busy tone or ring signal.

Modem (from modulator-demodulator) is a device that modulates an analog carrier signal
to encode digital information, and also demodulates such a carrier signal to decode the
transmitted information. The goal is to produce a signal that can be transmitted easily and
decoded to reproduce the original digital data. At the transmitter section it demodulates the
received signal so that it can be processed for relay.

A codec is a device or computer program capable of encoding and/or decoding a digital
data stream or signal. A codec encodes a data stream or signal for transmission, storage or
encryption, or decodes it for playback or editing. An example of this are the codecs used in the
sound cards of personal computers. The coding of signal in Radio one 94.3 fm transmitter is
done through AES/EBU.

Codecs are often designed to emphasize certain aspects of the media, or their use, to be
encoded.

The digital audio standard frequently called AES/EBU, officially known as AES3, is used
for carrying digital audio signals between various devices. It was developed by the Audio
Engineering Society (AES) and the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and first published in
1992. Later several different physical connectors are also defined as part of the overall group of
standards. A related system, S/PDIF, was developed essentially as a consumer version of
AES/EBU, using connectors more commonly found in the consumer market. These are now part
of the expanded AES3 standard as well.
Now, the received signal in now processed here under different tools for further relay

It receives the i/p signal from various codec as well as player and route any one of them
on the o/p line for audio processing. The switcher works on the priority mode and switches the
received signal from either of lease line, VSAT, & ISDN on the basis of priority feed to them. At
radio one the priority is in order of lease line, ISDN then VSAT. In case the received signal from
all three of them are not available for sometime the C.D. player automatically plays the song
which can be transmitted over the switcher

It is basically the combination of modulator and amplifier. At radio one the exciter
modulates the i/p audio signal at 94.3 MHz frequency which is the transmitting frequency band
for radio one. The exciter also excites the signal to 30watt power. At radio one we use the exciter
which is manufactured by -3 . Here we use digital exciter.

Sustainable performance is another key benefit of Harris. Unlike analog exciters whose
performance can degenerate over time. Harris will deliver the same exceptional signal quality

The purpose of a power amplifier, in very simple terms, is to take a signal from a source
device and make it suitable for driving a loudspeaker. Ideally, the only thing different between
the input signal and the output signal is the strength of the signal. Power amplifier modules
consist of two independent MOSFET amplifiers. Each power amplifier module is conservatively
rated to produce over 660 watts of output power into a system VSWR of 1.5:1 at up to 50
degrees Celsius ambient temperature at sea level. The IPA amplifier uses a single pair of
MOSFETs from a standard PA module. The second pair will automatically replace the first pair
on failure, to keep the transmitter on the air. Any PA module can be used as an IPA module,
without modification the transmitter on the air. Any PA module can be used as an IPA module,

used in such a way that they are radically outward from main center pillar. This method or
technique is used to increase some range of the coverage area. The cross antenna is a medium
gain and circular polarization structure made of a conductor or strip line over a ground plane,
following a cross contour of four or more branches. One end is feed by a generator and the other
one is charged with a load impedance.

The radio pattern of v antenna is directed in one one direction. To radiate the sound
signal in all direction we use 2 pairs of cross antenna. Thus , the main purpose of using 2 pairs of
cross v antenna is to get the uniform radiation pattern in all direction.

Digital Radio Mondiale (abbreviated DRM; Mondiale being French for "worldwide") is a
set of digital audio broadcasting technologies designed to work over the bands currently used for
AM broadcasting, particularly shortwave. DRM can fit more channels than AM, at higher
quality, into a given amount of bandwidth, using various MPE -4 codecs. Digital Radio
Mondiale is also the name of the international non-profit consortium designing and
implementing the platform. Radio France International, TeleDiffusion de France, BBC World
Service, Deutsche Welle, Voice of America, Telefunken (now Transradio) and Thomcast (now
Thomson SA) took part at the formation of the DRM consortium. DRM was originally designed
to allow digital radio broadcasting in the LW, MW and SW bands, using frequencies below
30MHz Radio signals at frequencies below 30 MHz have rather odd propagation characteristics
compared to transmissions that use higher frequencies. DRM has near-FM sound quality plus the
ease-of-use that comes from digital transmissions. The improvement over AM is immediately
noticeable. DRM can be used for a range of audio content, and has the capacity to integrate text
and data. This additional content can be displayed on DRM receivers to enhance the listening
experience.

There is a global trend towards the adoption of digital technology in radio and
communications, especially for distribution and transmission. Digitalization offers many
substantial advantages to national / international broadcasters and info casters.

broadcasting is gradually moving to a DAB standard. But coverage on FM 88-108 MHz (VHF)
is limited. % 4< 2

the limited fidelity of existing AM services is causing listeners to search for other alternatives.
Implementation of digital radio in today's AM bands (i.e. long, medium and shortwave)
will enable operators to provide services which will be successful with both existing and future
high-quality services operating on other parts of the dial. Digital broadcasting on short-,
medium-, or long wave (AM) has many advantages when compared to the conventional analogue
system we use now.

The advent of DRM has meant that new avenues of obtaining media have been opened up
to the general public. This is down in no small part to the fact that the large music labels and
movie studios feel confident enough in what DRM offers, to make their copyrighted media
available via online methods of distribution. Before DRM the major players in the movie and
music game wouldn't have contemplated making their material available on anything other than a
hard medium such as a CD or DVD.
This is a testament to the fact the DRM technology has advanced to a level where it can
maintain a level of security that even large multinational corporations are happy to use, and to an
extent invest their futures in, as the culture of media distribution shifts towards the online
environment
