FM Modulation

Frequency modulation is achieved by changing the frequency of the carrier wave in response to the amplitude of the modulated signal. A higher-frequency carrier represents larger amplitude, and a lower frequency represents a lower amplitude. This is opposed to AM which changes the amplitude of the carrier wave in response to the modulated signal.
