 This is called the FM improvement factor.   This is called the FM improvement factor.  
  
-For this to work practically the carrier peaks must be more than the noise peaks - where the RMS power of the carrier is 10dB greater than the channel noise. +For this to work practically the carrier peaks must be more than the noise peaks - where the RMS power of the carrier (C) is greater than the channel noise (N) by 10dB (C/N)
  
 This is called the FM improvement threshold. This is called the FM improvement threshold.

 +Thus the improvement for a given transmit power only holds while the received channel noise for the widened channel is 10dB less than the carrier power.
