  2. Radio noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_noise

    Radio noise near in frequency to a received radio signal (in the receiver's passband) interferes (RFI) with the operation of the receiver's circuitry.The level of noise determines the maximum sensitivity and reception range of a radio receiver; if no noise were picked up with radio signals, even weak transmissions could be received at virtually any distance by making a radio receiver that had ...

  3. Visual snow syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_snow_syndrome

    Perceiving visual static, flickering, or graininess on monochrome colors, in the sky, or in darkness can be a normal phenomenon associated with neural noise, amplified in the absence of bright visual stimuli. This effect is known as the Ganzfeld Effect. In conditions of low illumination, especially in dimly lit environments, this phenomenon is ...

  4. Squelch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squelch

    A noise squelch circuit is noise-operated and can be used in AM or FM receivers, and relies on the receiver quieting in the presence of an AM or FM carrier. To minimize the effects of voice audio on squelch operation, the audio from the receiver's detector is passed through a high-pass filter , typically passing 4,000 Hz (4kHz) and above ...

  5. Noise (video) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_(video)

    Noise, static or snow screen captured from a VHS tape. Noise, commonly known as static, white noise, static noise, or snow, in analog video, CRTs and television, is a random dot pixel pattern of static displayed when no transmission signal is obtained by the antenna receiver of television sets and other display devices.

  6. Noise (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_(electronics)

    Atmospheric noise Also called static noise, it is caused by lightning discharges in thunderstorms and other electrical disturbances occurring in nature, such as corona discharge. Industrial noise Sources such as automobiles, aircraft, ignition electric motors and switching gear, High voltage wires and fluorescent lamps cause industrial noise ...

  7. Acoustic attenuation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acoustic_attenuation

    In acoustics, acoustic attenuation is a measure of the energy loss of sound propagation through an acoustic transmission medium. Most media have viscosity and are therefore not ideal media. When sound propagates in such media, there is always thermal consumption of energy caused by viscosity.

  8. Electromagnetically induced acoustic noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetically...

    As a static force, it does not create vibrations nor acoustic noise. However torque ripple (also called cogging torque for permanent magnet synchronous machines in open circuit), which represents the harmonic variations of electromagnetic torque, is a dynamic force creating torsional vibrations of both rotor and stator.

  9. Noise (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_(signal_processing)

    Noise (audio), such as "hiss" or "hum", in audio signals Background noise, due to spurious sounds during signal capture; Comfort noise, added to voice communications to fill silent gaps; Electromagnetically induced noise, audible noise due to electromagnetic vibrations in systems involving electromagnetic fields; Noise (video), such as "snow"
