  2. Communication noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_noise

    Communication noise refers to influences on effective communication that influence the interpretation of conversations. While often looked over, communication noise can have a profound impact both on our perception of interactions with others and our analysis of our own communication proficiency. Forms of communication noise include ...

  3. Intersymbol interference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersymbol_interference

    Intersymbol interference. In telecommunications, intersymbol interference (ISI) is a form of distortion of a signal in which one symbol interferes with subsequent symbols. This is an unwanted phenomenon as the previous symbols have a similar effect as noise, thus making the communication less reliable. The spreading of the pulse beyond its ...

  4. Communication channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_channel

    A communication channel refers either to a physical transmission medium such as a wire, or to a logical connection over a multiplexed medium such as a radio channel in telecommunications and computer networking. A channel is used for information transfer of, for example, a digital bit stream, from one or several senders to one or several receivers.

  5. Interference (communication) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interference_(communication)

    In telecommunications, an interference is that which modifies a signal in a disruptive manner, as it travels along a communication channel between its source and receiver. The term is often used to refer to the addition of unwanted signals to a useful signal. Common examples include: Inter-carrier interference (ICI), caused by doppler shift in ...

  6. Internet background noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_background_noise

    Internet background noise. Internet background noise (IBN, also known as Internet background radiation, by analogy with natural background radiation) consists of data packets on the Internet which are addressed to IP addresses or ports where there is no network device set up to receive them. Network telescopes observe the Internet background ...

  7. Gaussian noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_noise

    Gaussian noise. In signal processing theory, Gaussian noise, named after Carl Friedrich Gauss, is a kind of signal noise that has a probability density function (pdf) equal to that of the normal distribution (which is also known as the Gaussian distribution). [1][2] In other words, the values that the noise can take are Gaussian-distributed.

  8. Internet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet

    e. The Internet (or internet) [a] is the global system of interconnected computer networks that uses the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) [b] to communicate between networks and devices. It is a network of networks that consists of private, public, academic, business, and government networks of local to global scope, linked by a broad array of ...

  9. Content centric networking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content_centric_networking

    Content-Centric Networking (CCN) diverges from the IP-based, host-oriented Internet architecture by prioritizing content, making it directly addressable and routable. In CCN, endpoints communicate based on named data rather than IP addresses. This approach is a part of information-centric networking (ICN) architecture and involves the exchange ...
