  2. Audio noise measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_noise_measurement

    Microphones, amplifiers and recording systems all add some electronic noise to the signals passing through them, generally described as hum, buzz or hiss. All buildings have low-level magnetic and electrostatic fields in and around them emanating from mains supply wiring, and these can induce hum into signal paths, typically 50 Hz or 60 Hz (depending on the country's electrical supply standard ...

  3. Electromagnetically induced acoustic noise - Wikipedia

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

    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", depending on the application.

  4. The Hum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hum

    A previous hum in Sausalito, California, also on the West Coast of the United States, was determined to be the mating call of the male midshipman. [37] However, in that case the hum was resonating through houseboat hulls and affecting the people living on those boats. In the West Seattle case, the University of Washington researcher determined ...

  5. Mains hum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mains_hum

    Mains hum, electric hum, cycle hum, or power line hum is a sound associated with alternating current which is twice the frequency of the mains electricity. The fundamental frequency of this sound is usually double that of fundamental 50/60 Hz , i.e., 100/120 Hz, depending on the local power-line frequency .

  6. Audio system measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_system_measurements

    Unbalanced inputs do not have common mode resistance; induced noise on their inputs appears directly as noise or hum. Dynamic range and Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) The difference between the maximum level a component can accommodate and the noise level it produces. Input noise is not counted in this measurement. It is measured in dB.

  8. The Mosquito - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mosquito

    The Mosquito or Mosquito alarm is a machine used to deter loitering by emitting sound at high frequency. In some versions, it is intentionally tuned to be heard primarily by younger people. Nicknamed "Mosquito" for the buzzing sound it plays, the device is marketed as a safety and security tool for preventing youths from congregating in ...

  9. Noise reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_reduction

    Noise reduction is the process of removing noise from a signal. Noise reduction techniques exist for audio and images. Noise reduction algorithms may distort the signal to some degree. Noise rejection is the ability of a circuit to isolate an undesired signal component from the desired signal component, as with common-mode rejection ratio.
