Let's say you are trying to receive an FM signal centered around 100MHz. In other words, the signal of interest is from (100-delta)MHz through (100+delta)MHz. My understanding is that at the receiver, you are first demodulating the signal by multiplying the incoming signal with the carrier frequency of 100MHz. This leads to two bands: a) Centered around 0: (-delta through +delta) b) Centered around 200MHz: (200-delta) Mhz through (200+delta) MHz. Signal (a) is what you are interested in, while signal (b) needs to be eliminated. This is where the LPF comes in. Best, Aditya
