  2. Basis of a matroid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basis_of_a_matroid

    The bases of a matroid characterize the matroid completely: a set is independent if and only if it is a subset of a basis. Moreover, one may define a matroid to be a pair (,), where is the ground-set and is a collection of subsets of , called "bases", with the following properties: [7] [8]

  3. Single-ended signaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-ended_signaling

    One wire carries a varying voltage that represents the signal, while the other wire is connected to a reference voltage, usually ground. The main alternative to single-ended signaling is called differential signaling where the two conductors carry signals equal in magnitude but of opposite electric polarity .

  4. Ground loop (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_loop_(electricity)

    The induced alternating current flowing through the resistance of the cable ground conductor will cause a small AC voltage drop across the cable ground. This is added to the signal applied to the input of the next stage. In audio equipment, the 50 or 60 Hz interference may be heard as a hum in the speakers. In a video system it may cause ...

    For example, NM 14-2 cable contains three conductors (two plus one ground) at 14 gauge, a size typically used for circuits protected at 15 amperes. Circuits with larger currents (such as for electric furnaces, water heaters, air conditioners, or sub-mains to additional circuit panels) will have larger conductors.

  6. Balanced line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balanced_line

    A signal transmitted over a balanced line. The signal is kept intact while the noise (which appears as a common-mode signal at the receiving end) is rejected perfectly.. In telecommunications and professional audio, a balanced line or balanced signal pair is an electrical circuit consisting of two conductors of the same type, both of which have equal impedances along their lengths, to ground ...

  7. 25-pair color code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/25-pair_color_code

    The pattern then starts over with the first 25-pair group as white/blue, and continues indefinitely, in multiples of 600 pairs or parts thereof. For example, a 900-pair cable has the first 600 pairs in 24 groups of 25 pairs in a white binder, and the remaining 300 pairs in 12 groups of 25 pairs wrapped in a red binder. [5] [6]

  8. Counterpoise (ground system) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counterpoise_(ground_system)

    It usually consists of a single wire or network of horizontal wires, parallel to the ground, suspended above the ground under the antenna, connected to the receiver or transmitter's "ground" wire. [2] The counterpoise functions as one plate of a large capacitor, with the conductive layers of the earth acting as the other plate. [2] [3]

  9. Ground (electricity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_(electricity)

    The current density, and power dissipated, increases the closer one gets to the ground terminal at the base of the antenna, [14] so the radial ground system can be thought of as providing a higher conductivity medium, copper, for the ground current to flow through, in the parts of the ground carrying high current density, to reduce power losses.
