Frequency Modulation (FM)

Frequency Modulation (FM) is a method of transmitting information, such as music or voice, by varying the frequency of a carrier wave. Instead of changing the amplitude (loudness) like in AM radio, FM alters the speed of the wave's cycles. This makes FM more resistant to noise and interference, leading to clearer sound quality. FM is commonly used in radio broadcasting and other forms of audio transmission, providing listeners with a richer listening experience. With FM, the information can be more accurately captured and reproduced, resulting in enhanced audio fidelity.
