  2. Empty sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Empty_sum

    Such "sums" are natural starting points in induction proofs, as well as in algorithms. For these reasons, the "empty sum is zero" extension is standard practice in mathematics and computer programming (assuming the domain has a zero element). For the same reason, the empty product is taken to be the multiplicative identity.

  3. IEEE 802.11 RTS/CTS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.11_RTS/CTS

    This protocol was designed under the assumption that all nodes have the same transmission ranges. RTS/CTS frames can cause the exposed terminal problem in which a wireless node that is nearby, but is associated with another access point, overhears the exchange and then is signaled to back off and cease transmitting for the time specified in the RTS.

  4. Beacon frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beacon_frame

    802.11 Beacon frame. A beacon frame is a type of management frame in IEEE 802.11 WLANs. It contains information about the network. Beacon frames are transmitted periodically; they serve to announce the presence of a wireless LAN and to provide a timing signal to synchronise communications with the devices using the network (the members of a service set).

  5. Zero-based numbering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-based_numbering

    In some mathematical contexts, zero-based numbering can be used without confusion, when ordinal forms have well established meaning with an obvious candidate to come before first; for instance, a zeroth derivative of a function is the function itself, obtained by differentiating zero times. Such usage corresponds to naming an element not ...

  6. Access Point Name - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Access_Point_Name

    An 'Access Point Name' (APN) is the name of a gateway [2] between a mobile network (GSM, GPRS, 3G, 4G and 5G) and another computer network, frequently the public Internet. [3] Some Important APN Terms: Below are some terms of the APN settings, explaining what each setting stands for: APN: The APN address of your (mobile network operator) MNOs.

  7. Zeros and poles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zeros_and_poles

    In this case a point that is neither a pole nor a zero is viewed as a pole (or zero) of order 0. A meromorphic function may have infinitely many zeros and poles. This is the case for the gamma function (see the image in the infobox), which is meromorphic in the whole complex plane, and has a simple pole at every non-positive integer.

  8. Zero-sum problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-sum_problem

    In number theory, zero-sum problems are certain kinds of combinatorial problems about the structure of a finite abelian group. Concretely, given a finite abelian group G and a positive integer n , one asks for the smallest value of k such that every sequence of elements of G of size k contains n terms that sum to 0 .

  9. Signed zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_zero

    Signed zero is zero with an associated sign.In ordinary arithmetic, the number 0 does not have a sign, so that −0, +0 and 0 are equivalent. However, in computing, some number representations allow for the existence of two zeros, often denoted by −0 (negative zero) and +0 (positive zero), regarded as equal by the numerical comparison operations but with possible different behaviors in ...
