  2. Plan position indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plan_position_indicator

    A plan position indicator (PPI) is a type of radar display that represents the radar antenna in the center of the display, with the distance from it and height above ground drawn as concentric circles. As the radar antenna rotates, a radial trace on the PPI sweeps in unison with it about the center point. It is the most common type of radar ...

  3. Pixel density - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel_density

    For example, a 15-inch (38 cm) display whose dimensions work out to 12 inches (30.48 cm) wide by 9 inches (22.86 cm) high, capable of a maximum 1024×768 (or XGA) pixel resolution, can display around 85 PPI, or 33.46 PPCM, in both the horizontal and vertical directions. This figure is determined by dividing the width (or height) of the display ...

  4. Radar signal characteristics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_signal_characteristics

    In a typical plan position indicator (PPI) radar with a rotating antenna, this will usually be seen as a "sun" or "sunburst" in the centre of the display as the receiver responds to echoes from dust particles and misguided RF in the waveguide. Adjusting the timing between when the transmitter sends a pulse and when the receiver stage is enabled ...

  5. Combat information center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combat_information_center

    Plan position indicator (PPI) display showing Doppler radar weather data A combat information center ( CIC ) or action information centre ( AIC ) is a room in a warship or AWACS aircraft that functions as a tactical center and provides processed information for command and control of the near battlespace or area of operations .

  6. Positive and negative predictive values - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Positive_and_negative...

    The positive predictive value (PPV), or precision, is defined as = + = where a "true positive" is the event that the test makes a positive prediction, and the subject has a positive result under the gold standard, and a "false positive" is the event that the test makes a positive prediction, and the subject has a negative result under the gold standard.

  7. List of computer display standards - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_computer_display...

    Various computer display standards or display modes have been used in the history of the personal computer. They are often a combination of aspect ratio (specified as width-to-height ratio), display resolution (specified as the width and height in pixels ), color depth (measured in bits per pixel), and refresh rate (expressed in hertz ).

  8. Pag-IBIG Fund - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pag-IBIG_Fund

    The Home Development Mutual Fund (HDMF), commonly known as the Pag-IBIG Fund (acronym of its Filipino name: Pagtutulungan sa Kinabukasan: Ikaw, Bangko, Industriya at Gobyerno [a]), is a government-owned and controlled corporation under the Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development of the Philippines responsible for the administration of the national savings program and affordable ...

    This table lists the eight S-boxes used in DES. Each S-box replaces a 6-bit input with a 4-bit output. Given a 6-bit input, the 4-bit output is found by selecting the row using the outer two bits, and the column using the inner four bits.
