  2. Attenuator (electronics) - Wikipedia

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

    When input and output impedances are the same, voltage attenuation will be the square root of power attenuation, so, for example, a 6 dB attenuator that reduces power to one fourth will reduce the voltage (and the current) by half. Nominal impedance, for example 50 ohm; Frequency bandwidth, for example DC-18 GHz

  3. Standing wave ratio - Wikipedia

    These detectors have a square law output for low levels of input. Readings therefore corresponded to the square of the electric field along the slot, E 2 (x), with maximum and minimum readings of E 2 max and E 2 min found as the probe is moved along the slot. The ratio of these yields the square of the SWR, the so-called PSWR. [13]

  4. T pad - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T_pad

    A T-pad attenuator formed from two symmetrical L sections. Because of the symmetry, R 1 = R 3 in this case. For an attenuator, Z and Y are simple resistors and γ becomes the image parameter attenuation (that is, the attenuation when terminated with the image impedances) in nepers. A T pad can be viewed as being two L sections back-to-back as ...

  5. Attenuation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attenuation

    In physics, attenuation (in some contexts, extinction) is the gradual loss of flux intensity through a medium.For instance, dark glasses attenuate sunlight, lead attenuates X-rays, and water and air attenuate both light and sound at variable attenuation rates.

  6. Tonelli–Shanks algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tonelli–Shanks_algorithm

    The Tonelli–Shanks algorithm (referred to by Shanks as the RESSOL algorithm) is used in modular arithmetic to solve for r in a congruence of the form r 2 ≡ n (mod p), where p is a prime: that is, to find a square root of n modulo p.

    CORDIC (coordinate rotation digital computer), Volder's algorithm, Digit-by-digit method, Circular CORDIC (Jack E. Volder), [1] [2] Linear CORDIC, Hyperbolic CORDIC (John Stephen Walther), [3] [4] and Generalized Hyperbolic CORDIC (GH CORDIC) (Yuanyong Luo et al.), [5] [6] is a simple and efficient algorithm to calculate trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, square roots ...

  8. Power, root-power, and field quantities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power,_root-power,_and...

    A root-power quantity is a quantity such as voltage, current, sound pressure, electric field strength, speed, or charge density, the square of which, in linear systems, is proportional to power. [3] The term root-power quantity refers to the square root that relates these quantities to power.

  9. Scattering parameters - Wikipedia

    The network is characterized by a square matrix of complex numbers called its S-parameter matrix, which can be used to calculate its response to signals applied to the ports. For the S-parameter definition, it is understood that a network may contain any components provided that the entire network behaves linearly with incident small signals.
