  2. Audio system measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_system_measurements

    Audio system measurements are a means of quantifying system performance. These measurements are made for several purposes. Designers take measurements so that they can specify the performance of a piece of equipment. Maintenance engineers make them to ensure equipment is still working to specification, or to ensure that the cumulative defects ...

  3. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    The plots at the bottom show the signal intensity in the indicated row of the image (red: original signal, blue: with noise). Signal-to-noise ratio ( SNR or S/N) is a measure used in science and engineering that compares the level of a desired signal to the level of background noise. SNR is defined as the ratio of signal power to noise power ...

  4. Dynamic range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range

    Dynamic range (abbreviated DR, DNR, [1] or DYR [2]) is the ratio between the largest and smallest values that a certain quantity can assume. It is often used in the context of signals, like sound and light. It is measured either as a ratio or as a base-10 ( decibel) or base-2 (doublings, bits or stops) logarithmic value of the ratio between the ...

  5. Minimum detectable signal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_detectable_signal

    Minimum detectable signal. A minimum detectable signal is a signal at the input of a system whose power allows it to be detected over the background electronic noise of the detector system. It can alternately be defined as a signal that produces a signal-to-noise ratio of a given value m at the output. In practice, m is usually chosen to be ...

  6. Clipping (audio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clipping_(audio)

    Clipping (audio) The altered peaks and troughs of the sine wave form displayed on this oscilloscope indicate the signal has been "clipped." Clipping is a form of waveform distortion that occurs when an amplifier is overdriven and attempts to deliver an output voltage or current beyond its maximum capability. Driving an amplifier into clipping ...

  7. Squelch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squelch

    Look up squelch in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. In telecommunications, squelch is a circuit function that acts to suppress the audio (or video) output of a receiver in the absence of a strong input signal. [1] Essentially, squelch is a specialized type of noise gate designed to suppress weak signals.

  9. Sound level meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sound_level_meter

    A sound level meter (also called sound pressure level meter ( SPL )) is used for acoustic measurements. It is commonly a hand-held instrument with a microphone. The best type of microphone for sound level meters is the condenser microphone, which combines precision with stability and reliability. [ 1] The diaphragm of the microphone responds to ...
