    Radar beacon. Racon signal as seen on a radar screen. This beacon receives using sidelobe suppression and transmits the letter "Q" in Morse code near Boston Harbor (Nahant) 17 January 1985. Radar beacon (short: racon) is – according to article 1.103 of the International Telecommunication Union's (ITU) ITU Radio Regulations (RR) [1 ...

  3. R-S-T system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-S-T_system

    The R-S-T system is used by amateur radio operators, shortwave listeners, and other radio hobbyists to exchange information about the quality of a radio signal being received. The code is a three digit number, with one digit each for conveying an assessment of the signal's readability, strength, and tone. [1] [2] The code was developed in 1934 ...

  4. Ray tracing (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_tracing_(graphics)

    In 3D computer graphics, ray tracing is a technique for modeling light transport for use in a wide variety of rendering algorithms for generating digital images . On a spectrum of computational cost and visual fidelity, ray tracing-based rendering techniques, such as ray casting, recursive ray tracing, distribution ray tracing, photon mapping ...

  5. PMD (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PMD_(software)

    PMD (software) PMD is an open source static source code analyzer that reports on issues found within application code. PMD includes built-in rule sets and supports the ability to write custom rules. PMD does not report compilation errors, as it only can process well-formed source files. Rather, PMD is designed to detect inefficient code or bad ...

  7. Obfuscation (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obfuscation_(software)

    In software development, obfuscation is the act of creating source or machine code that is difficult for humans or computers to understand. Like obfuscation in natural language, it may use needlessly roundabout expressions to compose statements. Programmers may deliberately obfuscate code to conceal its purpose ( security through obscurity) or ...

  9. Visible Light Photon Counter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visible_light_photon_counter

    A Visible Light Photon Counter ( VLPC) is a photon counting photodetector based on impurity-band conduction in arsenic - doped silicon. They have high quantum efficiency and are able to detect single photons in the visible range of the electromagnetic spectrum. The ability to count the exact number of photons detected is extremely important for ...
