  2. Rayleigh distribution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_distribution

    One example where the Rayleigh distribution naturally arises is when wind velocity is analyzed in two dimensions. Assuming that each component is uncorrelated , normally distributed with equal variance , and zero mean , which is infrequent, then the overall wind speed ( vector magnitude) will be characterized by a Rayleigh distribution.

  3. Rayleigh's quotient in vibrations analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh's_quotient_in...

    The example shows how the Rayleigh's quotient is capable of getting an accurate estimation of the lowest natural frequency. The practice of using the static displacement vector as a trial vector is valid as the static displacement vector tends to resemble the lowest vibration mode.

  4. Rayleigh fading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rayleigh_fading

    Rayleigh fading is a statistical model for the effect of a propagation environment on a radio signal, such as that used by wireless devices.. Rayleigh fading models assume that the magnitude of a signal that has passed through such a transmission medium (also called a communication channel) will vary randomly, or fade, according to a Rayleigh distribution — the radial component of the sum of ...

  5. Peak signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peak_signal-to-noise_ratio

    For color images with three RGB values per pixel, the definition of PSNR is the same except that the MSE is the sum over all squared value differences (now for each color, i.e. three times as many differences as in a monochrome image) divided by image size and by three.

  6. Brightness temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brightness_temperature

    At low frequency and high temperatures, when , we can use the Rayleigh–Jeans law: [11] = so that the brightness temperature can be simply written as: = In general, the brightness temperature is a function of ν {\displaystyle \nu } , and only in the case of blackbody radiation it is the same at all frequencies.

  7. Surface acoustic wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_acoustic_wave

    Experimental image of surface acoustic waves on a crystal of tellurium oxide [1]. A surface acoustic wave (SAW) is an acoustic wave traveling along the surface of a material exhibiting elasticity, with an amplitude that typically decays exponentially with depth into the material, such that they are confined to a depth of about one wavelength.

  8. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    If the noise has expected value of zero, as is common, the denominator is its variance, the square of its standard deviation σ N. The signal and the noise must be measured the same way, for example as voltages across the same impedance. Their root mean squares can alternatively be used according to:

  9. Speckle (interference) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speckle_(interference)

    The sample mean and variance of a single pixel are equal to the mean and variance of the local area that is centred on that pixel. [7] The Lee filter converts the multiplicative model into an additive one, thereby reducing the problem of dealing with speckle to a known tractable case. [39]
