  2. Radar beacon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_beacon

    Radar beacon (short: racon) is – according to article 1.103 of the International Telecommunication Union's (ITU) ITU Radio Regulations (RR) [1] – defined as "A transmitter-receiver associated with a fixed navigational mark which, when triggered by a radar, automatically returns a distinctive signal which can appear on the display of the ...

  3. Adderall - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adderall

    Adderall is commonly used to treat attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and narcolepsy (a sleep disorder).. ADHD. Long-term amphetamine exposure at sufficiently high doses in some animal species is known to produce abnormal dopamine system development or nerve damage, but, in humans with ADHD, long-term use of pharmaceutical amphetamines at therapeutic doses appears to improve brain ...

  4. List of Y-STR markers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Y-STR_markers

    The Y-STR markers in the following list are commonly used in forensic and genealogical DNA testing. DYS454 is the least diverse, and multi-copy marker DYS464 is the most diverse Y-STR marker. The location on the Y-chromosome of numbered Y-STR markers can be roughly given with cytogenetic localization. For example, DYS449 is located at Yp11.2 ...

    The following is a list of smartphones with a high refresh rate display.The refresh rate is the number of times in a second that a display hardware updates its buffer. It is not to be confused with the touch response rate, which is the frequency that the touchscreen senses input, or the frame rate, which describes how many images are stored or generated every second by the device driving the ...

  6. Pseudorandom noise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorandom_noise

    A pseudo-noise code (PN code) or pseudo-random-noise code (PRN code) is one that has a spectrum similar to a random sequence of bits but is deterministically generated. The most commonly used sequences in direct-sequence spread spectrum systems are maximal length sequences, Gold codes, Kasami codes, and Barker codes. See also. Barker code; Gold ...

  7. List of interface bit rates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_interface_bit_rates

    List of interface bit rates. This is a list of interface bit rates, is a measure of information transfer rates, or digital bandwidth capacity, at which digital interfaces in a computer or network can communicate over various kinds of buses and channels. The distinction can be arbitrary between a computer bus, often closer in space, and larger ...

  8. IATA delay codes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IATA_delay_codes

    In the AHM 780 specification, the two-character numeric-only codes are sent in the DL and EDL elements along with the time assigned to each code (e.g. DL31/62/0005/0015 showing reason 31 for 5 mins and reason 62 for 15 minutes), and the three-character alphanumeric codes are sent in the DLA element (e.g. DLA31C/62A// showing subreason C for ...

  9. Error correction code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Error_correction_code

    The code-rate is hence a real number. A low code-rate close to zero implies a strong code that uses many redundant bits to achieve a good performance, while a large code-rate close to 1 implies a weak code. The redundant bits that protect the information have to be transferred using the same communication resources that they are trying to protect.

  10. List of aircraft type designators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_aircraft_type...

    IATA codes are published in Appendix A of IATA's annual Standard Schedules Information Manual (SSIM) and are used for airline timetables and computer reservation systems. IATA designators are used to distinguish between aircraft types and variants that have differences from an airline commercial perspective (size, role, interior configuration ...

  11. Code rate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_rate

    The code rate of the octet oriented Reed Solomon block code denoted RS(204,188) is 188/204, meaning that 204 − 188 = 16 redundant octets (or bytes) are added to each block of 188 octets of useful information.
