  2. Grey noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grey_noise

    Grey noise spectrum The result is that grey noise contains all frequencies with equal loudness , as opposed to white noise , which contains all frequencies with equal energy . The difference between the two is the result of psychoacoustics , more specifically the fact that the human hearing is more sensitive to some frequencies than others.

  3. Gaussian noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaussian_noise

    In telecommunications and computer networking, communication channels can be affected by wideband Gaussian noise coming from many natural sources, such as the thermal vibrations of atoms in conductors (referred to as thermal noise or Johnson–Nyquist noise), shot noise, black-body radiation from the earth and other warm objects, and from ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_packet

    In telecommunications and computer networking, a network packet is a formatted unit of data carried by a packet-switched network. A packet consists of control information and user data; [ 1 ] the latter is also known as the payload .

  5. OSI model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSI_model

    OSI had two major components: an abstract model of networking, called the Basic Reference Model or seven-layer model, and a set of specific protocols. The OSI reference model was a major advance in the standardisation of network concepts. It promoted the idea of a consistent model of protocol layers, defining interoperability between network ...

  6. Colors of noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colors_of_noise

    Noise that has a frequency spectrum of predominantly zero power level over all frequencies except for a few narrow bands or spikes. Note: An example of black noise in a facsimile transmission system is the spectrum that might be obtained when scanning a black area in which there are a few random white spots. Thus, in the time domain, a few ...

  7. Communication channel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_channel

    Mathematical models of the channel can be made to describe how the input (the transmitted signal) is mapped to the output (the received signal). There exist many types and uses of channel models specific to the field of communication. In particular, separate models are formulated to describe each layer of a communication system.

  8. Computer network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_network

    An internetwork is the connection of multiple different types of computer networks to form a single computer network using higher-layer network protocols and connecting them together using routers. The Internet is the largest example of internetwork. It is a global system of interconnected governmental, academic, corporate, public, and private ...
