  2. Compressed sensing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressed_sensing

    Compressed sensing has showed outstanding results in the application of network tomography to network management. Network delay estimation and network congestion detection can both be modeled as underdetermined systems of linear equations where the coefficient matrix is the network routing matrix.

  3. Pulse compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_compression

    Pulse compression is a signal processing technique commonly used by radar, sonar and echography to either increase the range resolution when pulse length is constrained or increase the signal to noise ratio when the peak power and the bandwidth (or equivalently range resolution) of the transmitted signal are constrained.

  4. Longitudinal wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longitudinal_wave

    "Longitudinal waves" and "transverse waves" have been abbreviated by some authors as "L-waves" and "T-waves", respectively, for their own convenience. [1] While these two abbreviations have specific meanings in seismology (L-wave for Love wave [2] or long wave [3]) and electrocardiography (see T wave), some authors chose to use "ℓ-waves" (lowercase 'L') and "t-waves" instead, although they ...

  5. Speed of sound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_sound

    In a gas or liquid, sound consists of compression waves. In solids, waves propagate as two different types. A longitudinal wave is associated with compression and decompression in the direction of travel, and is the same process in gases and liquids, with an analogous compression-type wave in solids. Only compression waves are supported in ...

  6. Chirp compression - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chirp_compression

    The chirp pulse compression process transforms a long duration frequency-coded pulse into a narrow pulse of greatly increased amplitude. It is a technique used in radar and sonar systems because it is a method whereby a narrow pulse with high peak power can be derived from a long duration pulse with low peak power.

  7. Acoustic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_resonance

    Sound travels as a longitudinal compression wave, causing air molecules to move back and forth along the direction of travel. Within a tube, a standing wave is formed, whose wavelength depends on the length of the tube. At the closed end of the tube, air molecules cannot move much, so this end of the tube is a displacement node in

  8. Jerk (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerk_(physics)

    Timing diagram over one revolution for angle, angular velocity, angular acceleration, and angular jerk. Consider a rigid body rotating about a fixed axis in an inertial reference frame. If its angular position as a function of time is θ(t), the angular velocity, acceleration, and jerk can be expressed as follows:

  9. Seismic refraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seismic_refraction

    S-wave refraction evaluates the shear wave generated by the seismic source located at a known distance from the array. The wave is generated by horizontally striking an object on the ground surface to induce the shear wave. Since the shear wave is the second fastest wave, it is sometimes referred to as the secondary wave. When compared to the ...
