Frequency-hopping spread spectrum — (FHSS) is a method of transmitting radio signals by rapidly switching a carrier among many frequency channels, using a pseudorandom sequence known to both transmitter and receiver. A spread spectrum transmission offers three main advantages over… … Wikipedia
Frequency divider — A frequency divider, also called a clock divider or scaler or prescaler, is a circuit that takes an input signal of a frequency, fin, and generates an output signal of a frequency: where n is an integer. Phase locked loop frequency synthesizers… … Wikipedia
Frequency modulation — See also: Amplitude modulation In telecommunications, frequency modulation (FM) conveys information over a carrier wave by varying its frequency (contrast this with amplitude modulation, in which the amplitude of the carrier is varied while its… … Wikipedia
Frequency synthesizer — A frequency synthesizer is an electronic system for generating any of a range of frequencies from a single fixed timebase or oscillator. They are found in many modern devices, including radio receivers, mobile telephones, radiotelephones, walkie… … Wikipedia
Frequency Modulation (FM) — A&V Modulation of a sine wave or carrier by varying its frequency in accordance with amplitude variations of the modulating signals … Audio and video glossary
frequency — The number of regular recurrences in a given time, e.g., heartbeats, sound vibrations. [L. frequens, repeated, often, constant] best f. SYN: characteristic f.. characteristic f. f. at which a given neuron responds to the least sound intensity.… … Medical dictionary
High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program — HAARP is often confused with Project HARP, the High Altitude Research Project (a joint project of The Pentagon and the Canadian Department of National Defence).The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) is an investigation project … Wikipedia
Secondary frequency standard — In telecommunications, a secondary frequency standard is a frequency standard that does not have inherent accuracy, and therefore must be calibrated against a primary frequency standard. Secondary standards include crystal oscillators and… … Wikipedia
Ultra high frequency — (UHF) designates a range (band) of electromagnetic waves with frequencies between 300 MHz and 3 GHz (3,000 MHz). Also known as the decimeter band or decimeter wave as the wavelengths range from ten to one decimeters. Radio waves with frequencies… … Wikipedia
Mel-frequency cepstrum — In sound processing, the mel frequency cepstrum (MFC) is a representation of the short term power spectrum of a sound, based on a linear cosine transform of a log power spectrum on a nonlinear mel scale of frequency. Mel frequency cepstral… … Wikipedia
Injection locked frequency divider — In electronics, an injection locked frequency divider (ILFD) is a frequency divider that operates similarly to an injection locked oscillator. In an injection locked frequency divider, the frequency of the input signal is a multiple (or fraction) … Wikipedia
