Default RE: Difference between FM and PCM

ORIGINAL: hebertjj

As previously mentioned above, nearly all the latest "serious" systems use FM modulation on the carrier signal. This is not your "normal" FM as in your auto radio, but a form known as Phase Shift Keying ( PSK ).
I think all modern FM systems use FSK, do you know of one that uses actual direct digital modulation like PSK?
