  2. Digital delay line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_delay_line

    A digital delay line (or simply delay line, also called delay filter) is a discrete element in a digital filter, which allows a signal to be delayed by a number of samples. Delay lines are commonly used to delay audio signals feeding loudspeakers to compensate for the speed of sound in air, and to align video signals with accompanying audio ...

    Then their state can be read by an encoder to determine the delay. In general a digital delay-line based TDC, [19] also known as tapped delay line, contains a chain of cells (e.g. using D-latches in the figure) with well defined delay times . The start signal propagates through this chain and is successively delayed by each cell.

  4. Finite impulse response - Wikipedia

    A direct form discrete-time FIR filter of order N.The top part is an N-stage delay line with N + 1 taps. Each unit delay is a z −1 operator in Z-transform notation. A lattice-form discrete-time FIR filter of order N.

  5. Filter (signal processing) - Wikipedia

    In this scheme, a "tapped delay line" reinforces the desired frequencies as the sound waves flow across the surface of the quartz crystal. The tapped delay line has become a general scheme of making high- Q filters in many different ways.

    A method of slowing an AC electric motor by passing direct current through its windings. DC-to-DC converter A circuit that takes power from a DC source and generates a different DC voltage. degaussing The process of reducing the residual magnetic field in a metallic object, such as a ship. delay line

  7. Adaptive filter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adaptive_filter

    The adaptive linear combiner (ALC) resembles the adaptive tapped delay line FIR filter except that there is no assumed relationship between the X values. If the X values were from the outputs of a tapped delay line, then the combination of tapped delay line and ALC would comprise an adaptive filter.

  8. Power dividers and directional couplers - Wikipedia

    The pulses on the coupled line that travel in the opposite direction to the pulse on the main line are also of opposite polarity to each other but the second impulse is delayed by twice the delay of the parallel line. For a λ/4 coupled-line the total delay length is λ/2 so the second signal is inverted and this gives a maximum response on the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_predictor

    The Smith predictor (invented by O. J. M. Smith in 1957) is a type of predictive controller designed to control systems with a significant feedback time delay. The idea can be illustrated as follows. Suppose the plant consists of () followed by a pure time delay .
