  2. Circular error probable - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_error_probable

    The relation between and are given by the following table, where the values for DRMS and 2DRMS (twice the distance root mean square) are specific to the Rayleigh distribution and are found numerically, while the CEP, R95 (95% radius) and R99.7 (99.7% radius) values are defined based on the 68–95–99.7 rule

  3. Data Carrier Detect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_Carrier_Detect

    Its purpose varies depending on the device connected, but the most specific meaning is to indicate when a modem is connected to another remote modem via telephone lines. The word "carrier" is a reference to the analog carrier signal generated by a modem, which is modulated to carry the data. On a data modem, the carrier's loss equates to the ...

  4. Incremental encoder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incremental_encoder

    Many incremental encoders have an additional output signal, typically designated index [2] or Z, [3] which indicates the encoder is located at a particular reference position. Also, some encoders provide a status output (typically designated alarm) [4] that indicates internal fault conditions such as a bearing failure or sensor malfunction.

  5. Radar beacon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_beacon

    When a racon receives a radar pulse, it responds with a signal on the same frequency which puts an image on the radar display. This takes the form of a short line of dots and dashes forming a Morse character radiating away from the location of the beacon on the normal plan position indicator radar display. The length of the line usually ...

  6. Cepstrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cepstrum

    Main application is the modification of the signal in the quefrency domain (liftering) as an analog operation to filtering in the spectral frequency domain. [2] [3] An example is the suppression of echo effects by suppression of certain quefrencies. [2] The phase cepstrum (after phase spectrum) is related to the complex cepstrum as

  7. Reflections of signals on conducting lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflections_of_signals_on...

    A time-domain reflectometer; an instrument used to locate the position of faults on lines from the time taken for a reflected wave to return from the discontinuity.. A signal travelling along an electrical transmission line will be partly, or wholly, reflected back in the opposite direction when the travelling signal encounters a discontinuity in the characteristic impedance of the line, or if ...

  8. Automatic direction finder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Magnetic_Indicator

    An automatic direction finder (ADF) is a marine or aircraft radio-navigation instrument that automatically and continuously displays the relative bearing from the ship or aircraft to a suitable radio station. [3] [4] ADF receivers are normally tuned to aviation or marine NDBs (Non-Directional Beacon) operating in the LW band between 190 – 535 ...

  9. Crossbar latch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crossbar_latch

    The signal wire selectively has at least two different voltage states, ranging from a 0 state to a 1 state, wherein there is an asymmetry with respect to the direction of current flow from the signal wire through one junction compared to another junction such that current flowing through one junction into (out of) the signal wire can open ...
