  2. Aircraft emergency frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_emergency_frequency

    The aircraft emergency frequency (also known in the USA as Guard) is a frequency used on the aircraft band reserved for emergency communications for aircraft in distress.The frequencies are 121.5 MHz for civilian, also known as International Air Distress (IAD), International Aeronautical Emergency Frequency, [1] or VHF Guard, [1] and 243.0 MHz—the second harmonic of VHF guard—for military ...

  3. International Cospas-Sarsat Programme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Cospas...

    Prior to the founding of Cospas-Sarsat, the civilian aviation community had already been using the 121.5 MHz frequency for distress, while the military aviation community utilized 243.0 MHz as the primary distress frequency with the 121.5 MHz frequency as an alternate.

    The field of statistics is a mathematical application that is employed for the collection and processing of data samples, using procedures based on mathematical methods especially probability theory. Statisticians generate data with random sampling or randomized experiments .

  5. Data dredging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_dredging

    Another aspect of the conditioning of statistical tests by knowledge of the data can be seen while using the system or machine analysis and linear regression to observe the frequency of data. [clarify] A crucial step in the process is to decide which covariates to include in a relationship explaining one or more other variables.

  6. Pareto distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_distribution

    The Pareto distribution, named after the Italian civil engineer, economist, and sociologist Vilfredo Pareto, [2] is a power-law probability distribution that is used in description of social, quality control, scientific, geophysical, actuarial, and many other types of observable phenomena; the principle originally applied to describing the distribution of wealth in a society, fitting the trend ...

  7. Emergency locator beacon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emergency_locator_beacon

    The satellites calculate the geographic location of the beacon within 2 km by measuring the Doppler frequency shift of the radio waves due to the relative motion of the transmitter and the satellite, and quickly transmit the information to the appropriate local first responder organizations, which perform the search and rescue.

  8. Big data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_data

    Compared to survey-based data collection, big data has low cost per data point, applies analysis techniques via machine learning and data mining, and includes diverse and new data sources, e.g., registers, social media, apps, and other forms digital data. Since 2018, survey scientists have started to examine how big data and survey science can ...

  9. DTMF - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DTMF

    As DTMF signaling is often transmitted in-band with voice or other audio signals present simultaneously, the DTMF signal definition includes strict limits for timing (minimum duration and interdigit spacing), frequency deviations, harmonics, and amplitude relation of the two components with respect to each other (twist).
