Abstract:This research work highlighted major components of an FM transmitter consisting of audio unit, modulating unit, amplifier unit, RF(Radio Frequency) amplifier unit and transmitting unit. These units worked together to achieve the desired results. The transmitter itself generated alternating current, which was applied to the antenna when excited by this alternating current, basically a VHF colpitt oscillator capable of transmitting sound to any standard FM receiver. The circuit worked on a DC source which was got from rectification. This was made use of by the FM (Frequency Modulation ) transmitter and a capacitor microphone which picked up a very weak signal. The electrical signal was then applied to FM (Frequency Module) transmitter where the signal was then frequency modulated with a carrier frequency. The modulated signal was then transmitted to the medium through a transmitting antenna. FM transmitter could be used as cordless microphone, mobile phones and public address purpose. The antenna was attached to the transmitter in a portable device such as cell phone and walkie talkie, the antenna might be located on top of a building or a separate tower and connected to the transmitter by a feed line, that is transmitting line.
