  2. Electromagnetically induced acoustic noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetically...

    The hissing of high voltage transmission lines is due to corona discharge, not magnetism. The phenomenon is also called audible magnetic noise, [1] electromagnetic acoustic noise, lamination vibration [2] or electromagnetically induced acoustic noise, [3] or more rarely, electrical noise, [4] or "coil noise

  3. Beep (sound) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beep_(sound)

    A beep is a short, single tone, typically high-pitched, generally made by a computer or other machine.The term has its origin in onomatopoeia.The word "beep-beep" is recorded for the noise of a car horn in 1929, and the modern usage of "beep" for a high-pitched tone is attributed to Arthur C. Clarke in 1951.

  6. The Hum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hum

    The hum was louder inside their house than out, in part, they believed, because their house vibrated in resonance to the 60 Hz hum. In the lawsuit they claimed that the volume of the hum was measured at up to 64.1 dB in the couple's home. [28]

  7. Noise (spectral phenomenon) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_(spectral_phenomenon)

    Noise in computer graphics refers to various pseudo-random functions used to create textures, including: Gradient noise, created by interpolation of a lattice of pseudorandom gradients Perlin noise, a type of gradient noise developed in 1983; Simplex noise, a method for constructing an n-dimensional noise function comparable to Perlin noise

  8. Noise (electronics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_(electronics)

    Different types of noise are generated by different devices and different processes. Thermal noise is unavoidable at non-zero temperature (see fluctuation-dissipation theorem), while other types depend mostly on device type (such as shot noise, [1] [3] which needs a steep potential barrier) or manufacturing quality and semiconductor defects, such as conductance fluctuations, including 1/f noise.

  9. Impulse noise (acoustics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse_noise_(acoustics)

    An impulse noise filter can enhance the quality of noisy signals to achieve robustness in pattern recognition and adaptive control systems. A classic filter used to remove impulse noise is the median filter, at the expense of signal degradation. Thus it's quite common to get better performing impulse noise filters with model-based systems ...
