A spectrogram of Bloop. Bloop is the name given to an ultra-low-frequency and extremely powerful underwater sound detected by the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in 1997. The sound is consistent with the noises generated by icequakes in large icebergs, or large icebergs scraping the ocean floor. [3]
This mechanism could explain the Bloop's wide detection range and distinct acoustic signature. [7] As oceanographer Yunbo Xie explains, the alteration of waveforms from a detected sound "can also be caused by so-called angular frequency dependent radiation patterns associated with antisymmetric mode motion of the ice cover."
The frequency range of these drivers is maximized through the use of a whizzer cone and other means. Most single driver systems, such as those in radios, or small computer speaker designs, cannot reproduce all of the audible frequencies or the entire audible audio range (i.e., sound within the range of human hearing).
Phar Lap Software, Inc., was a software company specializing in software development tools for DOS operating systems. The company was named after the champion New Zealand racehorse Phar Lap . They were most noted for their software allowing developers to access memory beyond the 640 KiB limit of DOS ( DOS extenders ) and were an author of the ...
Compression is commonly used in sound recording and reproduction, broadcasting, [1] live sound reinforcement and some instrument amplifiers. A dedicated electronic hardware unit or audio software that applies compression is called a compressor. In the 2000s, compressors became available as software plugins that run in digital audio workstation ...
Windows Media Center Extenders (officially "Extender for Windows Media Center" and code named "Bobsled" [1]) are devices that are configured to connect over a computer network to a computer running Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition, Windows Vista Home Premium/Ultimate, Windows 7 Home Premium, or Windows 8 with a Pro pack to stream the computer's media center functions to the Extender ...
In broadcast engineering, a frequency extender is an electronic device that expands the usable frequency range of POTS telephone lines. [1] It also allows high-fidelity analog audio to be sent over regular telephone lines, without the loss of lower audio frequencies . It is an extended concept of a telephone hybrid.
An older range extender will not be able to repeat the signal of a newer generation router. Security encryption compatibility also matters and must be at the same level of compatibility for the signal to be extended. For example, an older range extender that supports WEP and WPA will not be able to boost a WPA2-encrypted signal from a router.
