peak-to-average power ratio
1Power (physics) — In physics, power is the rate at which energy is transferred, used, or transformed. For example, the rate at which a light bulb transforms electrical energy into heat and light is measured in watts the more wattage, the more power, or what is the …
2Power factor — For other uses, see Power factor (pistol). The power factor of an AC electric power system is defined as the ratio of the real power flowing to the load over the apparent power in the circuit,[1][2] and is a dimensionless number between 0 and 1… …
3Microwave power meter — A microwave power meter is an instrument which measures the electrical power at microwave frequencies. Usually a microwave power meter will consist of a measuring head which contains the actual power sensing element, connected via a cable to the… …
4Signal-to-noise ratio — For signal to noise ratio in statistics, see Cohen s d. Signal to noise ratio (often abbreviated SNR or S/N) is a measure used in science and engineering that compares the level of a desired signal to the level of background noise. It is defined… …
5Audio power — Sound measurements Sound pressure p, SPL Particle velocity v, SVL Particle displacement ξ Sound intensity I, SIL Sound power Pac Sound power level SWL Sound energy Sound energy density …
6Carrier-to-noise ratio — In telecommunications, the carrier to noise ratio, often written CNR or C/N , is the signal to noise ratio (SNR) of a modulated signal. The CNR is the quotient between the average received modulated carrier power C and the average received noise… …
7Seasonal energy efficiency ratio — The efficiency of air conditioners is often rated by the Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) which is defined by the [Air Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute] in its standard ARI 210=240, Performance Rating of Unitary Air… …
8AC power — This article deals with power in AC systems. See Mains electricity for information on utility supplied AC power. Usually hidden from the unaided eye, the blinking of (non incandescent) lighting powered by AC mains is revealed in this motion… …
9Output power of an analog TV transmitter — Output power of a TV transmitter is the electric power applied to antenna system. There are two definitions: nominal (or peak) and thermal. Contents 1 Power defined in terms of voltage 2 Nominal power of a TV transmitter 3 The thermal power …
10Maximum power transfer theorem — In electrical engineering, the maximum power transfer theorem states that, to obtain maximum external power from a source with a finite internal resistance, the resistance of the load must be equal to the resistance of the source as viewed from… …
