As this is a basic template, it's also in the [[:Category:Stub_Docs|"Stub Docs category"]]. Please improve it.

Insert description of flowgraph here, then show a screenshot of the flowgraph and the output if there is an interesting GUI.  Currently we have no standard method of uploading the actual flowgraph to the wiki or git repo, unfortunately. The plan is to have an example flowgraph showing how the block might be used, for every block, and the flowgraphs will live in the git repo.

Hierarchical block for demodulating a broadcast FM signal.

The input is the downconverted complex baseband signal (gr_complex).

The output is the demodulated audio (float).

Compared to WBFM Receive PLL, this one does a simple mono demodulation with deemphasis

Parameters

Channel Rate
Input sample rate of complex baseband input. (float)
Audio Decimation
How much to decimate Channel Rate to get to audio. (integer)
Deviation
FM modulation deviation. Standard FM broadcast uses 75 kHz
Audio Pass
Low pass filter rolloff frequency
Audio Stop
Low pass filter cutoff frequency
Gain
Audio gain
Tau
Preemphasis time constant (float) - typically 75e-6 (US) or 50e-6 (Europe)

Example Flowgraph

Implementing an FM broadcast band receiver is really easy with the WBFM Receive Block.
