Fading. Frequency-selective time-varying fading causes a cloudy pattern to appear on a spectrogram. Time is shown on the horizontal axis, frequency on the vertical axis and signal strength as grey-scale intensity. In wireless communications, fading is the variation of signal attenuation over variables like time, geographical position, and radio ...
A charge amplifier is an electronic current integrator that produces a voltage output proportional to the integrated value of the input current, or the total charge injected. Schematic of a charge amplifier with a piezoelectric sensor. The amplifier offsets the input current using a feedback reference capacitor, and produces an output voltage ...
A time-domain reflectometer; an instrument used to locate the position of faults on lines from the time taken for a reflected wave to return from the discontinuity.. A signal travelling along an electrical transmission line will be partly, or wholly, reflected back in the opposite direction when the travelling signal encounters a discontinuity in the characteristic impedance of the line, or if ...
On Aug. 4, Lyles won the 100-meter dashby 0.005 seconds, with a system of super-fast cameras and timing technology used to determine his torso reached the finish line before silver medalist ...
As an action potential (nerve impulse) travels down an axon there is a change in electric polarity across the membrane of the axon. In response to a signal from another neuron, sodium- (Na +) and potassium- (K + )–gated ion channels open and close as the membrane reaches its threshold potential. Na + channels open at the beginning of the ...
People take vitamins for all kinds of reasons—from vitamins for stress to vitamin B12 supplements —but many add them to their routine with the hope of boosting longevity. However, new research ...
In signal processing, sampling is the reduction of a continuous-time signal to a discrete-time signal. A common example is the conversion of a sound wave to a sequence of "samples". A sample is a value of the signal at a point in time and/or space; this definition differs from the term's usage in statistics, which refers to a set of such values.
