Modulation Index Calculator (AM / FM)

This tool calculates the **modulation index**, which quantifies how much a carrier wave is modulated by the input signal in either **AM** (Amplitude Modulation) or **FM** (Frequency Modulation).

Amplitude Modulation (AM)

The modulation index m is given by: m=AmAc Where Am is the peak amplitude of the modulating signal and Ac is the carrier amplitude.

Frequency Modulation (FM)

The FM modulation index β is: β=Δffm Where:

A higher index means more bandwidth. Narrowband FM (β < 1), wideband FM (β > 1).
