[!TLDR]

Matching the signal to the standard FM equation gives Vc=10 VV_c = 10\ \text{V}, ωc=6×108\omega_c = 6\times10^{8}, mf=5m_f = 5, ωm=1250\omega_m = 1250; from these fc=95.48 MHzf_c = 95.48\ \text{MHz}, fm=199 Hzf_m = 199\ \text{Hz}, Δf=995 Hz\Delta f = 995\ \text{Hz}, deviation ratio =377= 377 and the power in a 5 Ω\Omega load is 10 W.

The standard FM voltage equation is v=Vcsin⁡(ωct+mfsin⁡ωmt)v = V_c\sin(\omega_c t + m_f\sin\omega_m t). Comparing it with the given 10sin⁡[6×108t+5sin⁡(1250t)]10\sin[6\times10^{8}t + 5\sin(1250t)]:

Vc=10 V,ωc=6×108 rad/s,mf=5,ωm=1250 rad/sV_c = 10\ \text{V},\quad \omega_c = 6\times10^{8}\ \text{rad/s},\quad m_f = 5,\quad \omega_m = 1250\ \text{rad/s}

  1. Carrier frequency: fc=ωc2π=6×1082π=95.48 MHzf_c = \dfrac{\omega_c}{2\pi} = \dfrac{6\times10^{8}}{2\pi} = 95.48\ \text{MHz}.
  2. Modulating frequency: fm=ωm2π=12502π=199 Hzf_m = \dfrac{\omega_m}{2\pi} = \dfrac{1250}{2\pi} = 199\ \text{Hz}.
  3. Modulation index: read directly from the coefficient of the inner sine, mf=5m_f = 5.
  4. Maximum deviation: Δf=mf fm=5×199=995 Hz\Delta f = m_f\,f_m = 5\times199 = 995\ \text{Hz}. …
