Go to the head of the class. Is there a question ?

Take a normal analogue FM radio system (like the ones in a car).
Now FM is defined as
cos(Wct + k integral( f (t) dt ) )
and PM as
cos(Wct + kf(t) )
Where f(t) is the signal.
where k is a constant depending on the depth of modulation etc.
Now it is known that broadcast 'FM' uses pre-emphasis at the
transmitter (a 6dB/octave slope with break-frequencies of say 1kHz to
15kHz - not sure exactly on the frequencies here).
A 6dB/Octave slope is differentiation over a certain frequency range
(the pre-emphasis range).
Surely this cancels out the integration in FM and it becomes PM.
At the receiver a PLL or demodulator will ideally give d/dt [integral
f(t) dt ] = f(t).
ie rate of change of phase.
However, at the receiver is a de-emphasis circuit which has a slope of
-6dB/Octave which will cancel out the effect of the previous
differentiation. Hence FM with pre and de-emphasis is surely PM over
the necessary freq range and outside of this freq range it is true FM.
