  2. Constant false alarm rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constant_false_alarm_rate

    However, in most fielded systems, unwanted clutter and interference sources mean that the noise level changes both spatially and temporally. In this case, a changing threshold can be used, where the threshold level is raised and lowered to maintain a constant probability of false alarm. This is known as constant false alarm rate (CFAR) detection.

  3. Click (acoustics) - Wikipedia

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

    In sample recording, digital clicks occur when the signal levels of two adjacent audio sections do not match. The abrupt change in gain can be perceived as a click. [5] In electronic music, clicks are used as a musical element, particularly in glitch and noise music, for example in the Clicks & Cuts Series (2000–2010). [6] [7]

  4. SINAD - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SINAD

    The ratio of (a) total received power, i.e., the signal to (b) the noise-plus-distortion power. This is modeled by the equation above. [2] The ratio of (a) the power of a test signal, i.e. a sine wave, to (b) the residual received power, i.e. noise-plus-distortion power. With this definition, it is possible to have a SINAD level less than one.

    Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), however, is the ratio between the noise floor and an arbitrary reference level or alignment level. In "professional" recording equipment, this reference level is usually +4 dBu (IEC 60268-17), though sometimes 0 dBu (UK and Europe – EBU standard Alignment level).

  7. Noise calculation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noise_calculation

    The method or process of determining the resulting immission level is called noise calculation, its graphical representation is called noise map. Noise calculation is done for the following reasons: to calculate a current situation based on existing physics, mostly when a physical measurement at a location is impractical

  8. 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 ...

  9. Leeson's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leeson's_equation

    F is the device noise factor, however this does need to be measured at the operating power level. The common misunderstanding, that P s is the oscillator output level, may result from derivations that are not completely general. In 1982, W. P. Robins (IEE Publication "Phase noise in signal sources") correctly showed that the Leeson equation (in ...
