  • Patent number: 4476435
    Abstract: The digital demodulation of frequency modulated signals produces a pulse duration modulated signal proportional to the analog modulation signal component of the FM input signal from the FM input signal and a delayed version thereof and the pulse duration modulated signal is then converted to a digital signal representative of the analog modulation signal component of the FM signal by a delta sigma modulator and a decimator which also provides equalization of the FM signal to remove pre-emphasis applied to the FM signal prior to its transmission.
