The History of the FM Transmitter
From Broadcastvision Entertainment
It all started with the FM Transmitter
Broadcastvision Entertainment developed its version of the FM transmitter back in the 1980s, in response to the growing popularity of FM Walkman devices. The demand for aerobic exercise was on the rise, leading fitness centers to increase the number of cardio equipment in their facilities. To keep exercisers entertained, the FM transmitter was introduced alongside TVs that were attached to the walls or suspended from the ceiling. This innovation allowed exercisers to listen to TV audio while working out using their FM Personal Walkman.
As TVs continued to evolve, so did Broadcastvision's FM transmitter. It now features an easy-to-read LED display and multiple audio inputs, including analog 3.5mm, digital coax, and digital optical, among other enhancements. With the advent of smartphones, Broadcastvision Entertainment developed another product called AudioFetch, which allows users to listen to any audio using their smartphone or tablet. The AudioFetch app is free to download on
Google Play and iTunes, and it uses WiFi to broadcast audio. While it remains popular in the fitness industry and continues to grow, AudioFetch is also being used in sports bars, restaurants, hotel lobbies, airports, casinos, and practically any business that aims to wirelessly broadcast audio to smartphones or
tablets. Although FM transmitter sales have remained steady since their initial development, it wasn't until the recent outbreak of Covid-19 that businesses
began exploring creative ways to stay open while keeping customers at a safe distance. Churches, movie theaters, live performance venues, and more are now using FM transmitters to send audio to car radios, with great success.
FM Broadcasting
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Click here for Full article
FM broadcasting, using frequency modulation (FM), was invented in 1933 by American engineer Edwin Armstrong. It is a widely used method of radio broadcasting that delivers high-fidelity sound over the airwaves. FM broadcasting offers superior fidelity and more accurate reproduction of the original program sound compared to other technologies like AM broadcasting or DAB radio. FM radio stations operate in the very high frequency (VHF) range of radio frequencies worldwide. Typically, frequencies from 87.5 to 108.0 MHz are used, with some exceptions in certain regions.
FM modulation conveys information by varying the frequency of a carrier wave. It offers wider bandwidth than AM modulation and is commonly used for VHF and UHF frequencies, including TV, the FM broadcast band, and land mobile radio systems.
Stereo FM broadcasting was introduced with FM multiplexing, including sub-carriers for different types of audio information. The IF bandwidth was ±5 kHz, and it used 75 µs audio pre-emphasis. In the late 1950s, the FCC evaluated systems for adding stereo to FM radio. The GE and Zenith systems were adopted as the standard for stereo FM broadcasting in the United States.
To ensure compatibility with mono receivers, stereo broadcasts are encoded into sum (L+R) and difference (L−R) signals. This allows mono receivers to use the L+R signal while stereo receivers can recreate both the left and right channels. The final multiplex signal contains the Main Channel (L+R), a pilot tone, and the sub-channel (L−R). This composite signal is used to modulate the FM transmitter. This overview summarizes the key aspects of FM broadcasting and its evolution.
