  2. Cutoff frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutoff_frequency

    The cutoff frequency is the critical frequency between propagation and attenuation, which corresponds to the frequency at which the longitudinal wavenumber is zero. It is given by The wave equations are also valid below the cutoff frequency, where the longitudinal wave number is imaginary. In this case, the field decays exponentially along the ...

  3. Spatial cutoff frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_cutoff_frequency

    Spatial cutoff frequency. In optics, spatial cutoff frequency is a precise way to quantify the smallest object resolvable by an optical system. Due to diffraction at the image plane, all optical systems act as low pass filters with a finite ability to resolve detail. If it were not for the effects of diffraction, a 2" aperture telescope could ...

  4. Low-pass filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-pass_filter

    A low-pass filter is a filter that passes signals with a frequency lower than a selected cutoff frequency and attenuates signals with frequencies higher than the cutoff frequency. The exact frequency response of the filter depends on the filter design. The filter is sometimes called a high-cut filter, or treble-cut filter in audio applications.

  5. Debye model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Debye_model

    The Debye frequency (Symbol: or ) is a parameter in the Debye model that refers to a cut-off angular frequency for waves of a harmonic chain of masses, used to describe the movement of ions in a crystal lattice and more specifically, to correctly predict that the heat capacity in such crystals is constant at high temperatures (Dulong–Petit ...

  6. Chebyshev filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chebyshev_filter

    Type I Chebyshev filters are the most common types of Chebyshev filters. The gain (or amplitude) response, , as a function of angular frequency of the th-order low-pass filter is equal to the absolute value of the transfer function evaluated at : where is the ripple factor, is the cutoff frequency and is a Chebyshev polynomial of the th order.

  7. Half-power point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-power_point

    The half-power point is the point at which the output power has dropped to half of its peak value; that is, at a level of approximately −3 dB. [1][a] In filters, optical filters, and electronic amplifiers, [2] the half-power point is also known as half-power bandwidth and is a commonly used definition for the cutoff frequency.

  8. High-pass filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-pass_filter

    A high-pass filter (HPF) is an electronic filter that passes signals with a frequency higher than a certain cutoff frequency and attenuates signals with frequencies lower than the cutoff frequency. The amount of attenuation for each frequency depends on the filter design. A high-pass filter is usually modeled as a linear time-invariant system.

  9. Bessel filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bessel_filter

    v. t. e. In electronics and signal processing, a Bessel filter is a type of analog linear filter with a maximally flat group delay (i.e., maximally linear phase response), which preserves the wave shape of filtered signals in the passband. [1] Bessel filters are often used in audio crossover systems. The filter's name is a reference to German ...
