An integrator placed before a phase modulator produces

  • A.Amplitude modulation
  • B.A wider phase deviation at all frequencies
  • C.Pre-emphasis of the high audio frequencies
  • D.Frequency modulation

Answer: D

Because frequency is the derivative of phase, integrating the message before a phase modulator yields frequency modulation, and differentiating before a frequency modulator yields phase modulation. That equivalence is why the two are treated as one family. Amplitude modulation requires a quite different modulator. Uniformly wider phase deviation would need a gain change rather than an integrator. And an integrator attenuates the high frequencies, so it is the opposite of pre-emphasis.
