  2. Flow control (data) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_control_(data)

    In data communications, flow control is the process of managing the rate of data transmission between two nodes to prevent a fast sender from overwhelming a slow receiver. Flow control should be distinguished from congestion control , which is used for controlling the flow of data when congestion has actually occurred. [ 1 ]

  3. Time-stretch analog-to-digital converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-stretch_analog-to...

    The time-stretched and slowed down signal segments are then converted into digital samples by slow electronic ADCs. Finally, these samples are collected by a digital signal processor (DSP) and rearranged in a manner such that output data is the digital representation of the original analog signal.

  4. Direct-sequence spread spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direct-sequence_spread...

    While a transmitted DSSS signal occupies a wider bandwidth than the direct modulation of the original signal would require, its spectrum can be restricted by conventional pulse-shape filtering. If an undesired transmitter transmits on the same channel but with a different spreading sequence, the despreading process reduces the power of that signal.

  5. Signal transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_transmission

    Antenna used for transmission of radio signals In telecommunications , transmission (sometimes abbreviated as "TX") is the process of sending or propagating an analog or digital signal via a medium that is wired , wireless , or fiber-optic .

  6. Channel state information - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel_state_information

    In wireless communications, channel state information (CSI) is the known channel properties of a communication link.This information describes how a signal propagates from the transmitter to the receiver and represents the combined effect of, for example, scattering, fading, and power decay with distance.

  7. Packet switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packet_switching

    This can reduce wasted capacity caused by underutilized reservations at the cost of removing bandwidth guarantees. In practice, congestion control is generally used in IP networks to dynamically negotiate capacity between connections. Packet switching may also increase the robustness of networks in the face of failures.

  8. Data communication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_communication

    Data communication, including data transmission and data reception, is the transfer of data, transmitted and received over a point-to-point or point-to-multipoint communication channel. Examples of such channels are copper wires, optical fibers, wireless communication using radio spectrum, storage media and computer buses.

  9. Spread spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spread_spectrum

    Techniques known since the 1940s and used in military communication systems since the 1950s "spread" a radio signal over a wide frequency range several magnitudes higher than minimum requirement. The core principle of spread spectrum is the use of noise-like carrier waves, and, as the name implies, bandwidths much wider than that required for ...
