with the aid of diagrams,how a frequency-modulatedsignal may be


using a limiter circuit followed by a Foster-Seeleydiscriminator. (7)

ge-controlled oscillator circuit contains a 15 prH inductor which is tuned


L capacitor whose capacitanceis a frrnction of the applied control voltage.
,6n the latter is set to 0 V, the effective capacitanceis 100 pF and this
tgesat 2 pFA/ as the control voltage is varied. Estimatethe bandwidth of the
llator output signal when the control voltage has the form 5 cos(4000nt) V
the oscillator is followed by a xlO frequencymultiplying circuit' (10)
