  2. Two-ray ground-reflection model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-ray_ground-reflection...

    The received signal having two components, the LOS component and the reflection component formed predominantly by a single ground reflected wave. The 2-ray ground reflection model is a simplified propagation model used to estimate the path loss between a transmitter and a receiver in wireless communication systems, in order to estimate the ...

  3. GNSS reflectometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNSS_reflectometry

    Here the receiving instrument is on the surface of the Earth. In this technique the interference of the direct and reflected signals is used rather than a Delay Doppler Map or measuring the two signals separately. In the example shown, a GNSS antenna is ~2.5 meters above a planar surface. Both direct (blue) and reflected (red) GNSS signals are ...

  4. Reflected appraisal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflected_appraisal

    The extent to which reflected appraisals affect the person being appraised depends upon characteristics of the appraiser and his or her appraisal. [5] Greater impact on the development of a person's self-concept is said to occur when: (1) the appraiser is perceived as a highly credible source (2) the appraiser takes a very personal interest in the person being appraised (3) the appraisal is ...

  5. Reflections of signals on conducting lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflections_of_signals_on...

    A time-domain reflectometer; an instrument used to locate the position of faults on lines from the time taken for a reflected wave to return from the discontinuity.. A signal travelling along an electrical transmission line will be partly, or wholly, reflected back in the opposite direction when the travelling signal encounters a discontinuity in the characteristic impedance of the line, or if ...

  6. Radar signal characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_signal_characteristics

    A radar system uses a radio-frequency electromagnetic signal reflected from a target to determine information about that target. In any radar system, the signal transmitted and received will exhibit many of the characteristics described below.

  7. Conway's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway's_law

    The law is, in a strict sense, only about correspondence; it does not state that communication structure is the cause of system structure, merely describes the connection. Different commentators have taken various positions on the direction of causality; that technical design causes the organization to restructure to fit, [ 10 ] that the ...

  8. Reflectarray antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflectarray_antenna

    In satellite communications, it is necessary to produce multiple beams per feed, sometimes operating at different frequencies and polarizations. [16] An example of this is the four-color frequency reuse scheme. [16] Circular polarization is commonly used to reduce the effect of atmospheric depolarization on the communication system performance ...

  9. Passive radar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_radar

    Passive radar (also referred to as parasitic radar, passive coherent location, passive surveillance, and passive covert radar) is a class of radar systems that detect and track objects by processing reflections from non-cooperative sources of illumination in the environment, such as commercial broadcast and communications signals.
