  2. F wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F_wave

    F wave persistence - measure of alpha motor neuron excitability calculated as the number of F responses elicited divided by the number of stimuli presented. The minimal F wave latency is typically 25-32 ms in the upper extremities and 45-56 ms in the lower extremities. F wave persistence is the number of F waves obtained per the number of ...

  3. Nerve conduction study - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nerve_conduction_study

    There are two types of latency taken into account during the study: onset latency and peak latency. [11] Onset latency is the time it takes for the electrical stimulus to trigger an action potential in the nerve. [11] Peak latency is a representation of the time delay for the signal to travel down the "majority of the axons" in the nerve. [11]

  4. H-reflex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H-reflex

    An M-wave, an early response, occurs 3-6 ms after the onset of stimulation. The H and F-waves are later responses. As the stimulus increases, the amplitude of the F-wave increases only slightly, and the H-wave decreases, and at supramaximal stimulus, the H-wave will disappear. The M-wave does the opposite of the H-wave.

  5. F band (waveguide) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F_band_(waveguide)

    The waveguide F band is the range of radio frequencies from 90 GHz to 140 GHz in the electromagnetic spectrum, [1] [2] corresponding to the recommended frequency band of operation of WR8 waveguides. These frequencies are equivalent to wave lengths between 3.33 mm and 2.14 mm. The E band is in the EHF range of the radio spectrum.

  6. Propagation delay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propagation_delay

    An electromagnetic wave travelling through a medium has a propagation delay determined by the speed of light in that particular medium, or ca. 1 nanosecond per 29.98 centimetres (11.80 in) in a vacuum. An electric signal travelling through a wire has an propagation delay of ca. 1 nanosecond per 15 centimetres (5.9 in). [1]

  7. Ultra low frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra_low_frequency

    Ultra low frequency (ULF) is the ITU designation [1] for the frequency range of electromagnetic waves between 300 hertz and 3 kilohertz, corresponding to wavelengths between 1,000 to 100 km. In magnetosphere science and seismology , alternative definitions are usually given, including ranges from 1 mHz to 100 Hz, [ 2 ] 1 mHz to 1 Hz, [ 3 ] and ...

  8. Shortwave bands - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shortwave_bands

    Shortwave bands are frequency allocations for use within the shortwave radio spectrum (the upper medium frequency [MF] band and all of the high frequency [HF] band). Radio waves in these frequency ranges can be used for very long distance (transcontinental) communication because they can reflect off layers of charged particles in the ionosphere and return to Earth beyond the horizon, a ...

  9. Fundamental frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_frequency

    Vibration and standing waves in a string, The fundamental and the first six overtones. The fundamental frequency, often referred to simply as the fundamental (abbreviated as f 0 or f 1), is defined as the lowest frequency of a periodic waveform. [1] In music, the fundamental is the musical pitch of a note that is perceived as the lowest partial ...
