Adaptive FM demodulator supporting multiple modes

摘要

Methods, systems, and devices are described for an adaptive demodulator that supports multiple modes. An FM signal may be received at a demodulator and parameters corresponding to the FM signal may be identified. Connections between multiple modules within the demodulator may be configured, based at least in part on the parameters, to select one of multiple demodulation modes supported by the demodulator to demodulate the FM signal. The modes may include a phase differencing mode, a phase-locked loop (PLL) mode, a frequency-compressive feedback (FCF) mode, and/or a quadrature detector mode. The parameters may include one or both of a signal strength of the FM signal and a maximum frequency deviation of the FM signal. Based on the parameters, one or more signals may be generated to configure the connections within the demodulator. A switch from one mode to another may occur when one of the parameters breaches a threshold value.
