  2. F wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F_wave

    F wave persistence - measure of alpha motor neuron excitability calculated as the number of F responses elicited divided by the number of stimuli presented. The minimal F wave latency is typically 25-32 ms in the upper extremities and 45-56 ms in the lower extremities. F wave persistence is the number of F waves obtained per the number of ...

  3. Nerve conduction study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_conduction_study

    The F-wave latency can be used to derive the conduction velocity of the nerve between the limb and spine. In contrast, the motor and sensory nerve conduction studies evaluate conduction in the segment of the limb. F waves vary in latency and an abnormal variance is called "chrono dispersion".

  4. Nerve conduction velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_conduction_velocity

    Saltatory conduction. In neuroscience, nerve conduction velocity (CV) is the speed at which an electrochemical impulse propagates down a neural pathway.Conduction velocities are affected by a wide array of factors, which include age, sex, and various medical conditions.

  5. H-reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-reflex

    An M-wave, an early response, occurs 3-6 ms after the onset of stimulation. The H and F-waves are later responses. As the stimulus increases, the amplitude of the F-wave increases only slightly, and the H-wave decreases, and at supramaximal stimulus, the H-wave will disappear. The M-wave does the opposite of the H-wave.

  6. Group delay and phase delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_delay_and_phase_delay

    The group delay and phase delay properties of a linear time-invariant (LTI) system are functions of frequency, giving the time from when a frequency component of a time varying physical quantity—for example a voltage signal—appears at the LTI system input, to the time when a copy of that same frequency component—perhaps of a different physical phenomenon—appears at the LTI system output.

  7. Auditory brainstem response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auditory_brainstem_response

    In particular, the latency of the first positive peak (P1) of the CAEP is of interest. P1 is a robust positive wave occurring at around 100 to 300 ms in children. P1 latency represents the synaptic delays throughout the peripheral and central auditory pathways. [22] P1 in children is considered a marker for maturation of the auditory cortical ...

  8. Propagation delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_delay

    An electromagnetic wave travelling through a medium has a propagation delay determined by the speed of light in that particular medium, or ca. 1 nanosecond per 29.98 centimetres (11.80 in) in a vacuum. An electric signal travelling through a wire has an propagation delay of ca. 1 nanosecond per 15 centimetres (5.9 in). [1]

  9. Full width at half maximum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_width_at_half_maximum

    The convention of "width" meaning "half maximum" is also widely used in signal processing to define bandwidth as "width of frequency range where less than half the signal's power is attenuated", i.e., the power is at least half the maximum.
