  2. Symbol rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbol_rate

    The symbol duration time T s can be calculated as: = where f s is the symbol rate. For example, a baud rate of 1 kBd = 1,000 Bd is synonymous to a symbol rate of ...

  3. Unit interval (data transmission) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_interval_(data...

    The unit interval is the minimum time interval between condition changes of a data transmission signal, also known as the pulse time or symbol duration time.A unit interval (UI) is the time taken in a data stream by each subsequent pulse (or symbol).

  4. Unit of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_of_time

    Time unit used for sedimentation rates (usually of proteins). picosecond: 10 −12 s: One trillionth of a second. nanosecond: 10 −9 s: One billionth of a second. Time for molecules to fluoresce. shake: 10 −8 s: 10 nanoseconds, also a casual term for a short period of time. microsecond: 10 −6 s: One millionth of a second. Symbol is μs ...

  5. Baud - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baud

    The symbol duration time T s can be calculated as: =, where f s is the symbol rate. There is also a chance of miscommunication which leads to ambiguity. Example: Communication at the baud rate 1000 Bd means communication by means of sending 1000 symbols per second.

  6. Duty cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duty_cycle

    In electronics, duty cycle is the percentage of the ratio of pulse duration, or pulse width (PW) to the total period (T) of the waveform. It is generally used to represent time duration of a pulse when it is high (1). In digital electronics, signals are used in rectangular waveform which are represented by logic 1 and logic 0.

  7. Frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency

    The period (symbol T) is the interval of time between events, so the period is the reciprocal of the frequency: T = 1/f. [ 2 ] Frequency is an important parameter used in science and engineering to specify the rate of oscillatory and vibratory phenomena, such as mechanical vibrations, audio signals ( sound ), radio waves , and light .

  8. Bit rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bit_rate

    In telecommunications and computing, bit rate (bitrate or as a variable R) is the number of bits that are conveyed or processed per unit of time. [1]The bit rate is expressed in the unit bit per second (symbol: bit/s), often in conjunction with an SI prefix such as kilo (1 kbit/s = 1,000 bit/s), mega (1 Mbit/s = 1,000 kbit/s), giga (1 Gbit/s = 1,000 Mbit/s) or tera (1 Tbit/s = 1,000 Gbit/s). [2]

  9. Time constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_constant

    In physics and engineering, the time constant, usually denoted by the Greek letter τ (tau), is the parameter characterizing the response to a step input of a first-order, linear time-invariant (LTI) system. [1] [note 1] The time constant is the main characteristic unit of a first-order LTI system. It gives speed of the response.
