The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v2. Results and the main claim are underlined; show every role.

Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) in atomic systems involving Rydberg states is known to be a sensitive probe of incident microwave (MW) fields, in particular those resonant with Rydberg-to-Rydberg transitions. Here we propose an intelligible analytical model of Rydberg atomic receiver's response to amplitude- (AM) and frequency-modulated (FM) signals, and compare it with experimental results: we present a setup that allows sending signals with either AM or FM and evaluating their efficiency with demodulation. Additionally, the setup reveals a new detection configuration, using all circular polarizations for optical fields and allowing detection of circularly polarized MW field, propagating colinearly with optical beams. In our measurements we systematically present that several parameters exhibit local optimum characteristics and then estimate these optimal parameters and working ranges, addressing the need to devise a robust Rydberg MW sensor and its operational protocol.

The field coupled to second, $5^2P_3/2(F=4) → 55^2D_5/2$ transition (coupling field $c$) leads to the emergence of widely-studied electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) effect [ref] , which can be seen in the Fig. [ref](b), as well as zoomed in the Fig. [ref](c).
