  2. Radio jamming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_jamming

    Thanks to the FM capture effect, frequency modulated broadcasts may be jammed, unnoticed, by a simple unmodulated carrier. The receiver locks on to the larger carrier signal, and hence will ignore the FM signal that carries the information. Digital signals use complex modulation techniques, such as QPSK. These signals are very robust in the ...

  3. 2.4 GHz radio use - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2.4_GHz_radio_use

    Bluetooth devices intended for use in short-range personal area networks operate from 2.4 to 2.4835 GHz. To reduce interference with other protocols that use the 2.45 GHz band, the Bluetooth protocol divides the band into 80 channels (numbered from 0 to 79, each 1 MHz wide) and changes channels up to 1600 times per second.

  4. Near–far problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near–far_problem

    The near–far problem or hearability problem is the effect of a strong signal from a near signal source in making it hard for a receiver to hear a weaker signal from a further source due to adjacent-channel interference, co-channel interference, distortion, capture effect, dynamic range limitation, or the like.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binaural_fusion

    Therefore, the signals sent to the higher auditory nervous system are representative of this complete picture, integrated information from both ears instead of a single ear. The binaural squelch effect is a result of nuclei of the brainstem processing timing, amplitude, and spectral differences between the two ears. Sounds are integrated and ...

  6. Bluetooth - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth

    A Bluetooth earbud, an earphone and microphone that communicates with a cellphone using the Bluetooth protocol. Bluetooth is a short-range wireless technology standard that is used for exchanging data between fixed and mobile devices over short distances and building personal area networks (PANs).

  7. Anechoic chamber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anechoic_chamber

    Minimization of the reflection of sound waves by an anechoic chamber's walls Testing headphones in the Consumer Reports anechoic chamber. The requirement for what was subsequently called an anechoic chamber originated to allow testing of loudspeakers that generated such intense sound levels that they could not be tested outdoors in inhabited areas.

  8. Head-related transfer function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Head-related_transfer_function

    HRTF filtering effect. A head-related transfer function (HRTF) is a response that characterizes how an ear receives a sound from a point in space. As sound strikes the listener, the size and shape of the head, ears, ear canal, density of the head, size and shape of nasal and oral cavities, all transform the sound and affect how it is perceived, boosting some frequencies and attenuating others.

  9. Wireless device radiation and health - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_device_radiation...

    The service area served by each provider is divided into small geographical areas called cells, and all the phones in a cell communicate with that cell's antenna. Both the phone and the tower have radio transmitters which communicate with each other. Since in a cellular network the same radio channels are reused every few cells, cellular ...
