How does the modulation index of a phase-modulated emission vary with RF carrier frequency?
Pick an answer to check it.
Answer: D. It does not depend on the RF carrier frequency
Phase modulation index depends on how far the phase is shifted, which is set by the modulating signal. The carrier frequency has no effect on it.
Tip: PM index ignores carrier frequency.
