  2. Aircraft flight dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_flight_dynamics

    Heading angle σ: angle between north and the horizontal component of the velocity vector, which describes which direction the aircraft is moving relative to cardinal directions. Flight path angle γ: is the angle between horizontal and the velocity vector, which describes whether the aircraft is climbing or descending.

  3. High frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_frequency

    High frequency (HF) is the ITU designation [1] ... It depends on the angle of incidence of the waves; it is lowest when the waves are directed straight upwards, and ...

  4. Skywave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skywave

    When high-frequency signals enter the ionosphere at a low angle they are bent back towards the Earth by the ionized layer. [1] If the peak ionization is strong enough for the chosen frequency, a wave will exit the bottom of the layer earthwards – as if obliquely reflected from a mirror.

  6. Rhombic antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhombic_antenna

    The length is not critical, typically from one to two wavelengths end-to-end, but for any given length and frequency, there is an optimum acute angle at which the sections should meet. A horizontal rhombic antenna radiates horizontally polarized radio waves at a low elevation angle off the acute end of the antenna opposite the feedline.

  7. Spatial frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_frequency

    The value of each data point in k-space is measured in the unit of 1/meter, i.e. the unit of spatial frequency. It is very common that the raw data in k-space shows features of periodic functions. The periodicity is not spatial frequency, but is temporal frequency. An MRI raw data matrix is composed of a series of phase-variable spin-echo signals.

  8. Dispersion (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersion_(optics)

    In a dispersive prism, material dispersion (a wavelength-dependent refractive index) causes different colors to refract at different angles, splitting white light into a spectrum. A compact fluorescent lamp seen through an Amici prism. Dispersion is the phenomenon in which the phase velocity of a wave depends on its frequency. [1]

  9. Discone antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discone_antenna

    The cone: The length of the cone should be a quarter wavelength of the antenna's lowest operating frequency. [2] The cone angle is generally from 25 to 40 degrees. The insulator: The disc and cone must be separated by an insulator, the dimensions of which determine some of the antenna's properties, especially on near its high frequency limit.
