  2. Millisecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millisecond

    A millisecond (from milli-and second; symbol: ms) is a unit of time in the International System of Units equal to one thousandth (0.001 or 10 −3 or 1 / 1000) of a second [1] [2] or 1000 microseconds. A millisecond is to one second, as one second is to approximately 16.67 minutes.

  3. Microsecond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsecond

    50 microseconds – cycle time for highest human-audible tone (20 kHz). 50 microseconds – to read the access latency for a modern solid state drive which holds non-volatile computer data. [5] 100 microseconds (0.1 ms) – cycle time for frequency 10 kHz. 125 microseconds – common sampling interval for telephone audio (8000 samples/s). [6]

  4. Data mile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_mile

    In radar-related subjects and in JTIDS, a data mile is a unit of distance equal to 6,000 feet (1,829 metres; 0.9875 nautical miles; 1.136 miles).An international mile is 0.88 data mile.

  5. Unit of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_time

    The natural units for timekeeping used by most historical societies are the day, the solar year and the lunation.Such calendars include the Sumerian, Egyptian, Chinese, Babylonian, ancient Athenian, Buddhist, Hindu, Islamic, Icelandic, Mayan, and French Republican calendars.

  6. Bit time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_time

    The bit time for a 10 Mbit/s NIC is 100 nanoseconds. That is, a 10 Mbit/s NIC can eject 1 bit every 0.1 microsecond (100 nanoseconds = 0.1 microseconds). Bit time is distinctively different from slot time, which is the time taken for a pulse to travel through the longest permitted length of network medium.

  7. Radar mile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_mile

    Radar timing is usually expressed in microseconds. To relate radar timing to distances traveled by radar energy, the speed is used to calculate it. With speed of radar waves at approximately the speed of light in vacuum or 299,792,458 metres per second (300 m/μs; 984 ft/μs) and nautical mile at 1,852 metres (6,076 ft), the delay per nautical ...

  9. Sample-rate conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sample-rate_conversion

    Sample-rate conversion, sampling-frequency conversion or resampling is the process of changing the sampling rate or sampling frequency of a discrete signal to obtain a new discrete representation of the underlying continuous signal. [1]
