  2. Time–frequency analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time–frequency_analysis

    Light is an electromagnetic wave, so time–frequency analysis applies to optics in the same way as for general electromagnetic wave propagation. Similarly, it is a characteristic of acoustic signals, that their frequency components undergo abrupt variations in time and would hence be not well represented by a single frequency component ...

  3. Frequency domain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_domain

    One of the main reasons for using a frequency-domain representation of a problem is to simplify the mathematical analysis. For mathematical systems governed by linear differential equations, a very important class of systems with many real-world applications, converting the description of the system from the time domain to a frequency domain converts the differential equations to algebraic ...

  4. Finite-difference time-domain method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite-difference_time...

    Finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) or Yee's method (named after the Chinese American applied mathematician Kane S. Yee, born 1934) is a numerical analysis technique used for modeling computational electrodynamics (finding approximate solutions to the associated system of differential equations).

  5. Elliott wave principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliott_wave_principle

    The Elliott wave principle, or Elliott wave theory, is a form of technical analysis that helps financial traders analyze market cycles and forecast market trends by identifying extremes in investor psychology and price levels, such as highs and lows, by looking for patterns in prices.

  6. Time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_constant

    In physics and engineering, the time constant, usually denoted by the Greek letter τ (tau), is the parameter characterizing the response to a step input of a first-order, linear time-invariant (LTI) system. [1] [note 1] The time constant is the main characteristic unit of a first-order LTI system. It gives speed of the response.

  7. Phase (waves) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_(waves)

    In time and frequency, the purpose of a phase comparison is generally to determine the frequency offset (difference between signal cycles) with respect to a reference. [ 3 ] A phase comparison can be made by connecting two signals to a two-channel oscilloscope .

  9. Time domain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_domain

    Time domain refers to the analysis of mathematical functions, physical signals or time series of economic or environmental data, with respect to time. In the time domain, the signal or function's value is known for all real numbers , for the case of continuous time , or at various separate instants in the case of discrete time .
