TLDR
The improvement offered by the proposed demodulator is of such a degree that some of the important restrictions in planning different radio systems could be relaxed.
Abstract
As a result of investigation of interference into FM systems, a new algorithm for the process of demodulation is proposed. When compared to the method using the conventional limiter-discriminator, it offers better immunity against the baseband interference noise. Desired signal processing is performed by the functional devices added to the conventional limiter-discriminator in such a way that this new demodulator can be optimized in the sense of the minimum baseband interference noise. The statistics of the wanted and interfering signals must be known. Several examples involving interference problems in FDM-FM radio-relay systems carrying multichannel telephone signals are elaborated to illustrate the performances of the proposed demodulator. FDM-FM, PSK, or FSK systems are considered the cause of the interference. The noise power ratio (NPR) at the output of the conventional limiter-discriminator and the improvement factor offered by the new demodulator, obtained on digital computer, are presented versus baseband frequency in the form of diagrams. Different IF filters in FDM-FM receiver and transmit filters in the interfering systems are taken into account. The improvement offered by the proposed demodulator is of such a degree that some of the important restrictions in planning different radio systems could be relaxed.

Study of adjacent and co-channel FM interference reduction

H.W. Hawkes
TL;DR: The reduction of FM interference caused by the reception of adjacent or co-channel signals is examined and methods where the residual interference is reduced independent of which signal is being demodulated, i.e. the normal FM capture effect is enhanced.

Interchannel interference considerations in angle-modulated systems

TL;DR: It is shown that with band-limited white gaussian noise modulation (simulating modulation by a frequency division multiplex signal), an explicit expression for the spectral density of the baseband interchannel interference when two or more PM waves interfere with each other is derived.

Spectral Characteristics of FDM-FM Signals

TL;DR: In this paper, the power spectrum of a sinusoidal carrier which is frequency modulated by a normally distributed baseband signal is expanded as a sum of weighted convolution terms, where the significant parameter in the expansion, for an ideally bandlimited baseband spectrum, is R{x}(0) = R{\dot{x}}(0)/f min f max where R{{x}) is the mean squared frequency deviation and f min and f max are the lower and upper frequency limits of the BS spectrum.

Computation of Interference into Angle-Modulated Systems Carrying Multichannel Telephone Signals

TL;DR: A simple approach to calculate the convolution between the power spectra of the wanted FM signal and interference without direct calculation of the power spectrum of the FDMFM signal, which makes much simpler an accurate evaluation of the output noise power due to interference.
