  2. Smith chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_chart

    The chart unifies the passive and active circuit design on little and big circles on the surface of a unit sphere, using a stereographic conformal map of the reflection coefficient's generalized plane. Considering the point at infinity, the space of the new chart includes all possible loads: The north pole is the perfectly matched point, while ...

  3. Spontaneous potential logging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous_potential_logging

    Spontaneous potential log, commonly called the self potential log or SP log, is a passive measurement taken by oil industry well loggers to characterise rock formation properties. The log works by measuring small electric potentials (measured in millivolts) between depths with in the borehole and a grounded electrode at the surface.

  4. Target Motion Analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Target_Motion_Analysis

    Target Motion Analysis (TMA) is a process to determine the position of a target using passive sensor information. Sensors like passive RADAR and SONAR provide directional and occasionally frequency information. TMA is done by marking from which direction the sound comes at different times, and comparing the motion with that of the operator's ...

  5. Yagi–Uda antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yagi–Uda_antenna

    When a passive radiator is placed close (less than a quarter wavelength distance) to the driven dipole, it interacts with the near field, in which the phase-to-distance relation is not governed by propagation delay, as would be the case in the far field. Thus, the amplitude and phase relation between the driven and the passive element cannot be ...

  6. Network analysis (electrical circuits) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_analysis...

    Component: A device with two or more terminals into which, or out of which, current may flow.: Node: A point at which terminals of more than two components are joined. A conductor with a substantially zero resistance is considered to be a node for the purpose of analysis.

  7. Nelson rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nelson_rules

    The above eight rules apply to a chart of a variable value. A second chart, the moving range chart, can also be used but only with rules 1, 2, 3 and 4. Such a chart plots a graph of the maximum value - minimum value of N adjacent points against the time sample of the range.

  8. Shewhart individuals control chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shewhart_individuals...

    In statistical quality control, the individual/moving-range chart is a type of control chart used to monitor variables data from a business or industrial process for which it is impractical to use rational subgroups. [1] The chart is necessary in the following situations: [2]: 231

  9. Passivity (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passivity_(engineering)

    A passive filter is a kind of electronic filter that is made only from passive components – in contrast to an active filter, it does not require an external power source (beyond the signal). Since most filters are linear, in most cases, passive filters are composed of just the four basic linear elements – resistors, capacitors, inductors ...
