Pulse-Doppler radar — Pulse Doppler is a radar system capable of not only detecting target location (bearing, range, and altitude), but also measuring its radial velocity (range rate). It uses the Doppler effect to determine the relative velocity of objects; pulses of … Wikipedia
Pulse compression — is a signal processing technique mainly used in radar, sonar and echography to augment the range resolution as well as the signal to noise ratio. This is achieved by modulating the transmitted pulse and then correlating the received signal with… … Wikipedia
Pulse-position modulation — is a form of signal modulation in which M message bits are encoded by transmitting asingle pulse in one of 2^M possible time shifts. This is repeated every T seconds, such thatthe transmitted bit rate is M/T bits per second. It is primarily… … Wikipedia
Pulse diagnosis — is a technique used in traditional medicines such as in Ayurveda, Chinese medicine, or early Greek medicine. In Ayurveda, advocates claim that by taking a pulse examination, humoral imbalances such as the three Doshas Vata, Pitta, and Kaphha can… … Wikipedia
Pulse-code modulation — PCM redirects here. For other uses, see PCM (disambiguation). Pulse code modulation (PCM) is a method used to digitally represent sampled analog signals. It is the standard form for digital audio in computers and various Blu ray, Compact Disc and … Wikipedia
Pulse-amplitude modulation — Principle of PAM: (1) original signal, (2) PAM signal, (a) amplitude of signal, (b) time Pulse amplitude modulation, acronym PAM, is a form of signal modulation where the message information is encoded in the amplitude of a series of signal… … Wikipedia
Pulse — For other uses, see Pulse (disambiguation). Pulse evaluation at the radial artery. In medicine, one s pulse represents the tactile arterial palpation of the heartbeat by trained fingertips. The pulse may be palpated in any place that allows an… … Wikipedia
Pulse forming network — A Pulse Forming Network (PFN) accumulates electrical energy over a comparatively long time, then releases the stored energy in the form of a relatively square pulse of comparatively short duration for various pulsed power applications. In… … Wikipedia
Ultrashort pulse — In optics, an ultrashort pulse of light is an electromagnetic pulse whose time duration is on the order of the femtosecond (10 − 15 second). Such pulses have a broadband optical spectrum, and can be created by mode locked oscillators. They are… … Wikipedia
Chirped pulse amplification — Diagramatic scheme of chirped pulse amplification. Chirped pulse amplification (CPA) is a technique for amplifying an ultrashort laser pulse up to the petawatt level with the laser pulse being stretched out temporally and spectrally prior to… … Wikipedia
Femtosecond pulse shaping — In optics, Femtosecond pulse shaping refers to various techniques to modify the temporal profile of an ultrashort pulse from a laser. Pulse shaping can be used to shorten/elongate the duration of optical pulse, or to generate more complex… … Wikipedia
