Coherent addition refers to the process of combining two or more waveforms or signals that are in phase or have a constant phase relationship with each other. This principle is often applied in fields such as physics, optics, and signal processing. When waves are coherent, their peaks and troughs align, and when they are added together, their amplitudes sum constructively, leading to a stronger resultant wave.
