  2. Coherence (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coherence_(physics)

    In contrast, a radio antenna array, has large spatial coherence because antennas at opposite ends of the array emit with a fixed phase-relationship. Light waves produced by a laser often have high temporal and spatial coherence (though the degree of coherence depends strongly on the exact properties of the laser).

  3. Coherence (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coherence_(linguistics)

    Coherence in linguistics is what makes a text semantically meaningful. It is especially dealt with in text linguistics.Coherence is achieved through syntactic features such as the use of deictic, anaphoric and cataphoric elements or a logical tense structure, and semantic features such as presuppositions and implications connected to general world knowledge.

  4. Context (linguistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Context_(linguistics)

    Since much contemporary linguistics takes texts, discourses, or conversations as the object of analysis, the modern study of verbal context takes place in terms of the analysis of discourse structures and their mutual relationships, for instance the coherence relation between sentences.

  5. Text linguistics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text_linguistics

    Text linguistics is a branch of linguistics that deals with texts as communication systems.Its original aims lay in uncovering and describing text grammars.The application of text linguistics has, however, evolved from this approach to a point in which text is viewed in much broader terms that go beyond a mere extension of traditional grammar towards an entire text.

  6. Thematic coherence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thematic_coherence

    In developmental psychology, thematic coherence is an organization of a set of meanings in and through an event. [1] In education , for example, the thematic coherence happens when a child during a classroom session understands what all the talking is about.

  7. Rhetorical structure theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhetorical_Structure_Theory

    Rhetorical relations or coherence relations or discourse relations are paratactic (coordinate) or hypotactic (subordinate) relations that hold across two or more text spans. [7] It is widely accepted that notion of coherence is through text relations like this. RST using rhetorical relations provide a systematic way for an analyst to analyse ...

  8. Spatial correlation (wireless) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_correlation_(wireless)

    In wireless communication, spatial correlation is the correlation between a signal's spatial direction and the average received signal gain. Theoretically, the performance of wireless communication systems can be improved by having multiple antennas at the transmitter and the receiver.

  9. Coherence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coherence

    Coherence (physics), an ideal property of waves that enables stationary (i.e. temporally and spatially constant) interference Coherence (units of measurement), a derived unit that, for a given system of quantities and for a chosen set of base units, is a product of powers of base units with no other proportionality factor than one
