    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communication_during_the...

    After the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, radio repeaters for New York City Fire Department communication were installed in the tower complex. Because they were unaware that several controls needed to be operated to fully activate the repeater system, fire chiefs at their command post in the lobby of the North Tower thought the repeater was not functioning and did not use it, though it did ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regenerative_circuit

    One example is the Schmitt trigger (which is also known as a regenerative comparator), but the most common use of the term is in RF amplifiers, and especially regenerative receivers, to greatly increase the gain of a single amplifier stage.

  4. Radio repeater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_repeater

    A radio repeater is a combination of a radio receiver and a radio transmitter that receives a signal and retransmits it, so that two-way radio signals can cover longer distances. A repeater sited at a high elevation can allow two mobile stations, otherwise out of line-of-sight propagation range of each other, to communicate. [1]

  5. Operational amplifier applications - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational_amplifier...

    An operational amplifier can, if necessary, be forced to act as a comparator. The smallest difference between the input voltages will be amplified enormously, causing the output to swing to nearly the supply voltage.

    The World Trade Center was built on the site of Manhattan's Radio Row (pictured). The site for the World Trade Center was the location of Radio Row, which was home to 323 commercial or industrial tenants, over one thousand offices, many small businesses, and approximately 100 residents.

  7. List of World Trade Centers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_World_Trade_Centers

    A World Trade Center (also World Trade Centre or WTC) is a building or complex of buildings used for the promotion and expansion of trade and licensed to use the "World Trade Center" name by the World Trade Centers Association (WTCA). As of May 2020, the WTCA included 323 properties in 90 countries. [1]

  8. Comparator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparator

    In most cases a comparator is implemented using a dedicated comparator IC, but op-amps may be used as an alternative. Comparator diagrams and op-amp diagrams use the same symbols. A simple comparator circuit made using an op-amp without feedback simply heavily amplifies the voltage difference between Vin and VREF and outputs the result as Vout.

    The World Trade Center seen from a nearby street in 2000. The original World Trade Center created a superblock that cut through the area's street grid, isolating the complex from the rest of the community. [91] [247] [248] The Port Authority had demolished several streets to make way for the towers within the World Trade Center. The project ...
