21Wave surface — Wave Wave, n. [From {Wave}, v.; not the same word as OE. wawe, waghe, a wave, which is akin to E. wag to move. [root]138. See {Wave}, v. i.] [1913 Webster] 1. An advancing ridge or swell on the surface of a liquid, as of the sea, resulting from… …
22Wave theory — Wave Wave, n. [From {Wave}, v.; not the same word as OE. wawe, waghe, a wave, which is akin to E. wag to move. [root]138. See {Wave}, v. i.] [1913 Webster] 1. An advancing ridge or swell on the surface of a liquid, as of the sea, resulting from… …
23Wave-line system — Wave Wave, n. [From {Wave}, v.; not the same word as OE. wawe, waghe, a wave, which is akin to E. wag to move. [root]138. See {Wave}, v. i.] [1913 Webster] 1. An advancing ridge or swell on the surface of a liquid, as of the sea, resulting from… …

25Phase congruency — is a measure of feature significance in computer images, a method of edge detection that is particularly robust against changes in illumination and contrast.FoundationsPhase congruency reflects the behaviour of the image in the frequency domain.… …
26Phase — (f[=a]z), n.; pl. {Phases} (f[=a]z [e^]z). [NL. phasis, Gr. ?, fr. ? to make to appear: cf. F. phase. See {Phenomenon}, {Phantom}, and {Emphasis}.] 1. That which is exhibited to the eye; the appearance which anything manifests, especially any one …
27Phase noise — is the frequency domain representation of rapid, short term, random fluctuations in the phase of a wave, caused by time domain instabilities ( jitter ). Generally speaking radio frequency engineers speak of the phase noise of an oscillator,… …
28Phase modulation — (PM) is a form of modulation that represents information as variations in the instantaneous phase of a carrier wave.Unlike its more popular counterpart, frequency modulation (FM), PM is not very widely used. This is because it tends to require… …
29Phase offset modulation — works by overlaying two instances of a periodic waveform on top of each other. (For the purposes of softsynths, the waveform is usually generated by using a lookup table.) The two instances of the waveform are kept slightly out of sync with each… …
30wave front — wave′ front n. phs a surface of a propagating wave, made up of all points at which the phase of oscillation is the same • Etymology: 1865–70 …
