  2. Noise figure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_figure

    The noise factor is defined as the ratio of the output noise power of a device to the portion thereof attributable to thermal noise in the input termination at standard noise temperature T 0 (usually 290 K). The noise factor is thus the ratio of actual output noise to that which would remain if the device itself did not introduce noise, which ...

  3. Noise temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_temperature

    The noise factor (a linear term) is more often expressed as the noise figure (in decibels) using the conversion: = ⁡ The noise figure can also be seen as the decrease in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) caused by passing a signal through a system if the original signal had a noise temperature of 290 K. This is a common way of expressing the noise ...

  4. Excess noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Excess_Noise_Ratio

    The Y-factor method is a common measurement technique for this purpose. [1] By using a noise diode, the output noise of an amplifier is measured using two input noise levels, and by measuring the output noise factor (referred to as Y) the noise figure of the amplifier can be determined without having to measure the amplifier gain.

    where is the overall noise factor of the subsequent stages. According to the equation, the overall noise factor, F r e c e i v e r {\displaystyle F_{\mathrm {receiver} }} , is dominated by the noise factor of the LNA, F L N A {\displaystyle F_{\mathrm {LNA} }} , if the gain is sufficiently high.

    where f 0 is the output frequency, Q l is the loaded quality factor, f m is the offset from the output frequency (Hz), f c is the 1/f corner frequency, F is the noise factor of the amplifier, k is the Boltzmann constant, T is absolute temperature, and P s is the available power at the sustaining amplifier input.

    3. Live within your means. Boomers grew up during some prosperous times, and many enjoyed strong salaries and career stability — but overspending can catch up with anyone.

  8. Occupational noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occupational_noise

    Noise, in the context of industrial noise, is hazardous to a person's hearing because of its loud intensity through repeated long-term exposure. In order for noise to cause hearing impairment for the worker, the noise has to be close enough, loud enough, and sustained long enough to damage the hair cells in the auditory system. These factors ...

  9. Noise reduction coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_reduction_coefficient

    The noise reduction coefficient (commonly abbreviated NRC) is a single number value ranging from 0.0 to 1.0 that describes the average sound absorption performance of a material. An NRC of 0.0 indicates the object does not attenuate mid-frequency sounds, but rather reflects sound energy.
