The result obtained by subjecting a set of data to an algorithm for purposes of checking the data at the time the algorithm is applied or for use at a later time such as after transmission or retrieval from storage. 2. A value computed on data to detect error or manipulation. See checksum.
Industry:Telecommunications
The restoration of the dynamic range of a compressed signal to its original dynamic range.
Industry:Telecommunications
The resistance that, if inserted in place of an antenna, would consume the same amount of power that is radiated by the antenna.
Industry:Telecommunications
The representation of a signal as a plot of amplitude versus time.
Industry:Telecommunications
The repetition or deletion of a block of bits in a synchronous or perspicacious bitstream due to a discrepancy in the read and write rates at a buffer. 2. In a sequence of transmitted symbols, e. G. , digital bits, a signal phase shift, i.e., a signal positional displacement, that causes the loss of one or more symbols or the insertion of one or more extraneous symbols. Note: Slips are usually caused by inadequate synchronization of the two clocks controlling the transmission and reception of the signals that represent the symbols.
Industry:Telecommunications
The repeated switching of frequencies during radio transmission according to a specified algorithm, to minimize unauthorized interception or jamming of telecommunications. Note: The overall bandwidth required for frequency hopping is much wider than that required to transmit the same information using only one carrier frequency.
Industry:Telecommunications
The remote control of an apparatus by signals conveyed by electromagnetic waves. Note: Radio control may be used to control the movement of an aircraft, vehicle, missile, or other mobile unit, either manned or unmanned, from a radio station on the ground or in another mobile unit.
Industry:Telecommunications
The relationship between two signals such that their corresponding significant instants occur at the same average rate.
Industry:Telecommunications
The relationship between two signals such that their corresponding significant instants are displaced by a constant interval of time.
Industry:Telecommunications
The relationship between interacting entities in which neither entity relies upon the other entity to function correctly or securely with respect to some property. 2. The condition in which two IS's need to rely upon each other to perform a service, yet neither trusts the other to properly protect shared data.
