1Damped wave — A damped wave is a wave whose amplitude of oscillation decreases with time, eventually going to zero. This term also refers to an early method of radio transmission produced by spark gap transmitters, which consisted of a series of damped… …
2Crystal oscillator — A miniature 4 MHz quartz crystal enclosed in a hermetically sealed HC 49/US package, used as the resonator in a crystal oscillator. A crystal oscillator is an electronic oscillator circuit that uses the mechanical resonance of a vibrating crystal …
3Oscilloscope — This article is about current oscilloscopes, providing general information. For history of oscilloscopes, see Oscilloscope history. For detailed information about various types of oscilloscopes, see Oscilloscope types. Illustration showing the… …
4Fading — This article is about signal loss in telecommunications. For the poetry book, see Fading (book). For other uses, see Fade (disambiguation). Frequency selective time varying fading causes a cloudy pattern to appear on a spectrogram. Time is shown… …
5Search for extraterrestrial intelligence — The search for extraterrestrial intelligence is sometimes abbreviated as SETI. For other uses, see SETI (disambiguation). Screen shot of the screensaver for SETI@home, a distributed computing project in which volunteers donate idle computer power …
6Short-time Fourier transform — The short time Fourier transform (STFT), or alternatively short term Fourier transform, is a Fourier related transform used to determine the sinusoidal frequency and phase content of local sections of a signal as it changes over time. STFT… …
7Polar modulation — is analogous to quadrature modulation in the same way that polar coordinates are analogous to Cartesian coordinates. Quadrature modulation makes use of Cartesian coordinates, x and y . When considering quadrature modulation, the x axis is called… …
8Window function — For the term used in SQL statements, see Window function (SQL) In signal processing, a window function (also known as an apodization function or tapering function[1]) is a mathematical function that is zero valued outside of some chosen interval …
