Summing localization is a concept from the field of mathematics, particularly in the areas of operator theory and functional analysis. It pertains to the behavior of certain types of operators on function spaces, particularly when considering how they interact with the properties of localization. In a more general sense, localization refers to the idea of analyzing the behavior of functions or operators in a localized (restricted) region of space, rather than globally.
Target strength (TS) is a measure used in acoustics and sonar to quantify how well an object reflects sound waves, particularly in underwater environments. It is an important concept in fields such as underwater acoustics, marine biology, sonar technology, and fisheries research. Target strength is typically expressed in decibels (dB) and is defined as the ratio of the intensity of the reflected sound wave from the target to the intensity of the incident sound wave that strikes the target.
Time Gain Compensation (TGC) is a technique used primarily in radar and sonar systems, as well as in imaging and acoustic applications, to enhance the quality of the received signals. The purpose of TGC is to compensate for the loss of signal strength due to signal attenuation as the signal travels through a medium (like water or air) or as it propagates over distance.
Time metrology is the science and practice of measuring time with high precision and accuracy. It involves various methods and technologies used to define, measure, and standardize time intervals. This field is critical in numerous applications, including global positioning systems (GPS), telecommunications, scientific research, and various industrial processes.
Treble refers to the higher range of sounds in audio and music. In the context of sound frequencies, treble encompasses the higher frequencies, typically above 2,000 Hz, and can extend up to around 20,000 Hz. This range is associated with bright, sharp, and clear sounds, such as those produced by cymbals, flutes, and certain vocalizations.
"Ultrasonics" is a scientific journal that publishes research articles, reviews, and technical notes related to the field of ultrasonics, which involves the use of high-frequency sound waves (above the upper limit of human hearing, typically above 20 kHz) in various applications. This can include areas such as medical imaging, non-destructive testing, industrial cleaning, ultrasonic welding, and other areas where ultrasonic technology is applied.
