  2. Noise (video) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_(video)

    Noise, static or snow screen captured from a blank VHS tape. Noise, commonly known as static, white noise, static noise, or snow, in analog video, CRTs and television, is a random dot pixel pattern of static displayed when no transmission signal is obtained by the antenna receiver of television sets and other display devices.

  3. Balanced audio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_audio

    Balanced audio connections use a number of techniques to reduce noise. A typical balanced cable contains two identical wires, which are twisted together and then wrapped with a third conductor (foil or braid) that acts as a shield. The two wires form a circuit that can carry an audio signal.

  4. Constant-voltage speaker system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant-voltage_speaker...

    The voltage is stepped down at the destination. Similarly, in a constant-voltage speaker system, the amplifier uses a transformer to step up the voltage of the audio signal to reduce power loss over the speaker cable, allowing more power to be transmitted over a given wire diameter.

  5. Balanced line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_line

    A signal transmitted over a balanced line. The signal is kept intact while the noise (which appears as a common-mode signal at the receiving end) is rejected perfectly.. In telecommunications and professional audio, a balanced line or balanced signal pair is an electrical circuit consisting of two conductors of the same type, both of which have equal impedances along their lengths, to ground ...

  6. Output power of an analog TV transmitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Output_power_of_an_analog...

    Analogue television systems put about 70% to 90% of the transmitters power into the sync pulses. The remainder of the transmitter's power goes into transmitting the video's higher frequencies and the FM audio carrier. Digital television modulation systems are about 30% more efficient than analogue modulation systems overall.

  7. Phantom power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phantom_Power

    A microphone or other device can obtain DC power from either signal line to ground terminal, and two capacitors block this DC from appearing at the output. R1 and R2 should be 6.81k ohms for "P48" 48-volt phantom. R3–6 and Zener diodes 1–4 deliberately clip the outputs to ±10v to protect a subsequent circuit from potentially large transients.

  8. Second audio program - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_audio_program

    In turn, the MTS pilot is locked to the horizontal sync frequency of the video carrier for stability. The SAP channel contains mono audio which has been dbx-encoded for noise reduction, to improve the signal-to-noise ratio. The SAP audio has a bandpass from 60 Hz to 12 kHz, which is less than the "regular" audio channel which runs from 50 Hz to ...

  9. Mains hum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_hum

    Mains hum, electric hum, cycle hum, or power line hum is a sound associated with alternating current which is twice the frequency of the mains electricity. The fundamental frequency of this sound is usually double that of fundamental 50/60 Hz , i.e., 100/120 Hz, depending on the local power-line frequency .
