Noise control — This article is about the scientific aspects of noise control. For the anti social concept of noise control, see Loud music. Noise control is an active or passive means of reducing sound emissions, often incentivised by personal comfort,… … Wikipedia
Noise, vibration, and harshness — (NVH), also known as noise and vibration (N V), is the study and modification of the noise and vibration characteristics of vehicles, particularly cars and trucks. While noise and vibration can be readily measured, Harshness is a subjective… … Wikipedia
Noise-induced hearing loss — (NIHL) is an increasingly prevalent disorder that results from exposure to high intensity sound, especially over a long period of time. Contents 1 Description 2 Mechanism 3 Types 3.1 … Wikipedia
Noise, Vibration, and Harshness — Noise, Vibration, and Harshness, also known as Noise and Vibration, abbreviated to NVH and N V respectively, is the name given to the field of measuring, and modifying, the noise and vibration characteristics of vehicles, particularly cars and… … Wikipedia
Noise dosimeter — A noise dosimeter (American) or noise dosemeter (British) is a specialized sound level meter intended specifically to measure the noise exposure of a person integrated over a period of time; usually to comply with Health and Safety regulations… … Wikipedia
Transfer case — A transfer case is a part of a four wheel drive system found in four wheel drive and all wheel drive vehicles. The transfer case is connected to the transmission and also to the front and rear axles by means of driveshafts. It is also referred to … Wikipedia
Wireless energy transfer — or wireless power is the transmission of electrical energy from a power source to an electrical load without artificial interconnecting conductors. Wireless transmission is useful in cases where interconnecting wires are inconvenient, hazardous,… … Wikipedia
White noise — is a random signal (or process) with a flat power spectral density. In other words, the signal contains equal power within a fixed bandwidth at any center frequency. White noise draws its name from white light in which the power spectral density… … Wikipedia
Johnson–Nyquist noise — (thermal noise, Johnson noise, or Nyquist noise) is the electronic noise generated by the thermal agitation of the charge carriers (usually the electrons) inside an electrical conductor at equilibrium, which happens regardless of any applied… … Wikipedia
Signal to noise ratio (image processing) — The Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) is used in image processing as a physical measure of the sensitivity of an imaging system. Industry standards measure SNR in decibels (dB) and therefore apply the 20 log rule to the pure SNR ratio. In turn,… … Wikipedia
Head-related transfer function — The head related transfer function HRTF , also called the anatomical transfer function ATF , describes how a given sound wave input (parameterized as frequency and source location) is filtered by the diffraction and reflection properties of the… … Wikipedia
