  2. The Mosquito - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mosquito

    The Mosquito was released to the mainstream market in 2005, through Stapleton's company Compound Security Solutions. [8] The current device has two settings: the high frequency sound targeted at youth, and another that can be heard by everyone. The range of the sound is 140 feet (43 m) with the sound baffle, and 200 feet (61 m) without. It ...

  3. Electronic pest control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_pest_control

    Electronic pest control is the name given to any of several types of electrically powered devices designed to repel or eliminate pests, usually rodents or insects. Since these devices are not regulated under the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act in the United States, the EPA does not require the same kind of efficacy testing that it does for chemical pesticides.

  4. Bug zapper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bug_zapper

    Bug zapper traps may be installed indoors, or outdoors if they are constructed to withstand the effects of weather. However, they are not effective at killing biting insects (female mosquitoes and other insects) outdoors, [4] [5] being much more effective at attracting and killing other harmless and beneficial insects.

    The top pair of graphs represent the discrete-time Fourier transform (DTFT) representation. The middle pair, depict a normalized frequency scale, preferred by many filter design programs. The frequency, f, in Hz is divided by the sample-rate. The periodicity and Nyquist frequency are then represented by constants, 1 and 1/2 respectively.

  6. Noise curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_curve

    The result is determined by the lowest curve which is not touched by the measured spectrum at any position in the audio frequency range. Noise curves serve as uniform measuring standards and are referred to by many noise regulations covering a variety of locations from concert halls, rock concerts, lecture rooms and offices to clay target ...

    Acoustic – frequency of G −7, the lowest note sung by the singer with the deepest voice in the world, Tim Storms. His vocal cords vibrate 1 time every 5.29 seconds. 10 0: 1 hertz (Hz) 1 to 1.66 Hz: Approximate frequency of an adult human's resting heart beat: 1 Hz: 60 bpm, common tempo in music 2 Hz: 120 bpm, common tempo in music ~7.83 Hz

  8. Least-squares spectral analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Least-squares_spectral...

    Least-squares spectral analysis (LSSA) is a method of estimating a frequency spectrum based on a least-squares fit of sinusoids to data samples, similar to Fourier analysis. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Fourier analysis, the most used spectral method in science, generally boosts long-periodic noise in the long and gapped records; LSSA mitigates such problems. [ 3 ]

  9. Hearing range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hearing_range

    The ear's shape also allows the sound to be heard more accurately. Many breeds often have upright and curved ears, which direct and amplify sounds. As dogs hear higher frequency sounds than humans, they have a different acoustic perception of the world. [24] Sounds that seem loud to humans often emit high-frequency tones that can scare away dogs.
