White noise is commonly used in the production of electronic music, usually either directly or as an input for a filter to create other types of noise signal. It is used extensively in audio synthesis , typically to recreate percussive instruments such as cymbals or snare drums which have high noise content in their frequency domain. [ 8 ]
In signal processing theory, Gaussian noise, named after Carl Friedrich Gauss, is a kind of signal noise that has a probability density function (pdf) equal to that of the normal distribution (which is also known as the Gaussian distribution). [1] [2] In other words, the values that the noise can take are Gaussian-distributed.
Colored noise can be computer-generated by first generating a white noise signal, Fourier-transforming it, then multiplying the amplitudes of the different frequency components with a frequency-dependent function. [26] Matlab programs are available to generate power-law colored noise in one or any number of dimensions.
LFSRs are also used in radio jamming systems to generate pseudo-random noise to raise the noise floor of a target communication system. The German time signal DCF77 , in addition to amplitude keying, employs phase-shift keying driven by a 9-stage LFSR to increase the accuracy of received time and the robustness of the data stream in the ...
Brownian noise can also be computer-generated by first generating a white noise signal, Fourier-transforming it, then dividing the amplitudes of the different frequency components by the frequency (in one dimension), or by the frequency squared (in two dimensions) etc. [6] Matlab programs are available to generate Brownian and other power-law ...
The transformation is called "whitening" because it changes the input vector into a white noise vector. Several other transformations are closely related to whitening: the decorrelation transform removes only the correlations but leaves variances intact, the standardization transform sets variances to 1 but leaves correlations intact,
A short excitation waveform (of length L samples) is generated. In the original algorithm, this was a burst of white noise, but it can also include any wideband signal, such as a rapid sine wave chirp or frequency sweep, or a single cycle of a sawtooth wave or square wave.
A pseudo-noise code (PN code) or pseudo-random-noise code (PRN code) is one that has a spectrum similar to a random sequence of bits but is deterministically generated. The most commonly used sequences in direct-sequence spread spectrum systems are maximal length sequences , Gold codes , Kasami codes , and Barker codes .
