  2. Emphasis (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emphasis_(telecommunications)

    In telecommunications, de-emphasis is the complement of pre-emphasis, in the antinoise system called emphasis. De-emphasis is a system process designed to decrease, (within a band of frequencies), the magnitude of some (usually higher) frequencies with respect to the magnitude of other (usually lower) frequencies in order to improve the overall signal-to-noise ratio by minimizing the adverse ...

  3. Equalization (communications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equalization_(communications)

    Equalization was also applied to correct the response of the transducers, for example, a particular microphone might be more sensitive to low frequency sounds than to high frequency sounds, so an equalizer would be used to increase the volume of the higher frequencies (boost), and reduce the volume of the low frequency sounds (cut).

  4. Digital room correction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_room_correction

    Digital room correction may involve minimum phase algorithms, to maintain wavefront coherence over the intended frequency range.. The use of analog filters, such as equalizers, to normalize the frequency response of a playback system has a long history; however, analog filters are very limited in their ability to correct the distortion found in many rooms.

  5. Group delay and phase delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_delay_and_phase_delay

    The group delay and phase delay properties of a linear time-invariant (LTI) system are functions of frequency, giving the time from when a frequency component of a time varying physical quantity—for example a voltage signal—appears at the LTI system input, to the time when a copy of that same frequency component—perhaps of a different physical phenomenon—appears at the LTI system output.

  6. Adaptive equalizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_equalizer

    An adaptive equalizer is an equalizer that automatically adapts to time-varying properties of the communication channel. [1] It is frequently used with coherent modulations such as phase-shift keying, mitigating the effects of multipath propagation and Doppler spreading. Adaptive equalizers are a subclass of adaptive filters.

  7. Watchdog timer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watchdog_timer

    This delay allows time for the computer to boot before the watchdog is enabled. Without this delay, the watchdog would timeout and invoke a subsequent reset before the computer can run its application software — the software which kicks the watchdog — and the system would become stuck in an endless cycle of incomplete reboots.

  8. Ubuntu Netbook Edition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Netbook_Edition

    Ubuntu Netbook Edition (UNE), known as Ubuntu Netbook Remix (UNR) prior to the release of Ubuntu 10.04, [3] [4] [5] is a discontinued version of the Ubuntu operating system (OS) that had been optimized to enable it to work better on netbooks and other devices with small screens or with the Intel Atom CPU.

  9. Completely Fair Scheduler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Completely_Fair_Scheduler

    In contrast to the previous O(1) scheduler used in older Linux 2.6 kernels, which maintained and switched run queues of active and expired tasks, the CFS scheduler implementation is based on per-CPU run queues, whose nodes are time-ordered schedulable entities that are kept sorted by red–black trees. The CFS does away with the old notion of ...
