power-additive noise
21White noise — is a random signal (or process) with a flat power spectral density. In other words, the signal contains equal power within a fixed bandwidth at any center frequency. White noise draws its name from white light in which the power spectral density… …
22Shot noise — Photon noise simulation. Shot noise is a type of electronic noise that may be dominant when the finite number of particles that carry energy (such as electrons in an electronic circuit or photons in an optical device) is sufficiently small so… …
23Cosmic noise — and galactic radio noise is random noise that originates outside the Earth s atmosphere. It can be detected and heard on radio receivers. Elaboration Cosmic noise characteristics are similar to those of thermal noise. Cosmic noise is experienced… …
24Contrast-to-noise ratio — Haze over Kuala Lumpur. Contrast to noise ratio (CNR) is a measure used to determine image quality. CNR is similar to the metric, signal to noise ratio (SNR), but subtracts off a term before taking the ratio. This is important when there is a… …
25Shannon–Hartley theorem — In information theory, the Shannon–Hartley theorem tells the maximum rate at which information can be transmitted over a communications channel of a specified bandwidth in the presence of noise. It is an application of the noisy channel coding… …
26Matched filter — In telecommunications, a matched filter (originally known as a North filter[1]) is obtained by correlating a known signal, or template, with an unknown signal to detect the presence of the template in the unknown signal. This is equivalent to… …
27Telecommunication — A parabolic satellite communication antenna at the biggest facility for satellite communication in Raisting, Bavaria, Germany …
28Jitter — For other meanings of this word, see Jitter (disambiguation). Jitter is the undesired deviation from true periodicity of an assumed periodic signal in electronics and telecommunications, often in relation to a reference clock source. Jitter may… …
29Wiener deconvolution — In mathematics, Wiener deconvolution is an application of the Wiener filter to the noise problems inherent in deconvolution. It works in the frequency domain, attempting to minimize the impact of deconvoluted noise at frequencies which have a… …
30Channel (communications) — Old telephone wires are a challenging communications channel for modern digital communications. In telecommunications and computer networking, a communication channel, or channel, refers either to a physical transmission medium such as a wire, or …
