Information About

Carson Bandwidth Rule




Carson's bandwidth rule is expressed by the relation CBR = 2(Δf + f m) where CBR is the bandwidth requirement, Δf is the peak frequency deviation, and f m is the highest modulating frequency.

For example, an FM signal with 5kHz peak deviation, and a maximum audio frequency of 3kHz, would require a bandwidth of approximately 2(5+3) = 16kHz.

Carson's bandwidth rule is often applied to transmitters, antennas, optical sources, receivers, photodetectors, and other communications system components.
