This document compares different techniques for demodulating amplitude modulated (AM) and frequency modulated (FM) signals. It discusses five main methods for AM demodulation - envelope detection, coherent detection, square-law detection, and quadrature detection. It also examines three techniques for FM demodulation - FM to AM conversion, zero-crossing detection, and quadrature detection. For each method it provides diagrams, explanations, and comparisons in terms of performance and pros/cons. The document concludes that all the demodulation methods can recover the message signal to some degree but with varying levels of precision and distortion.
