Amplitude and phase-shift keying — or Asymmetric Phase shift keying, (APSK), is a digital modulation scheme that conveys data by changing, or modulating, both the amplitude and the phase of a reference signal (the carrier wave). In other words, it combines both Amplitude shift… … Wikipedia
Signal-to-noise ratio — For signal to noise ratio in statistics, see Cohen s d. Signal to noise ratio (often abbreviated 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. It is defined… … Wikipedia
Amplitude — is the magnitude of change in the oscillating variable, with each oscillation, within an oscillating system. For instance, sound waves are oscillations in atmospheric pressure and their amplitudes are proportional to the change in pressure during … Wikipedia
Amplitude-shift keying — (ASK) is a form of modulation that represents digital data as variations in the amplitude of a carrier wave.The amplitude of an analog carrier signal varies in accordance with the bit stream (modulating signal), keeping frequency and phase… … Wikipedia
Signal sonore — Son (physique) Pour les articles homonymes, voir Son. Le son est une onde produite par la vibration mécanique d un support fluide ou solide et propagée grâce à l élasticité du milieu environnant sous forme d ondes longitudinales. Par extension… … Wikipédia en Français
Quadrature amplitude modulation — (QAM) (Pronounced IPA|kwa:m) is a modulation scheme which conveys data by changing ( modulating ) the amplitude of two carrier waves. These two waves, usually sinusoids, are out of phase with each other by 90° and are thus called quadrature… … Wikipedia
Analytic signal — Not to be confused with Analytic function. In mathematics and signal processing, the analytic representation of a real valued function or signal facilitates many mathematical manipulations of the signal. The basic idea is that the negative… … Wikipedia
Radar signal characteristics — A Radar System uses a Radio Frequency electromagnetic signal reflected from a target to determine information about that target. In any radar system, the signal transmitted and received will exhibit many of the characteristics described below.The … Wikipedia
Analog signal — An analog or analogue signal is any continuous signal for which the time varying feature (variable) of the signal is a representation of some other time varying quantity, i.e analogous to another time varying signal. It differs from a digital… … Wikipedia
Caractéristiques du signal radar — Un système radar utilise un signal radio électromagnétique qui, en étant réfléchi par une cible, permettra d obtenir des informations sur cette cible. Les signaux transmis et réfléchis vont présenter plusieurs des caractéristiques décrites ci… … Wikipédia en Français
