Radio receiver designRadio receiver design includes the electronic design of different components of a radio receiver which processes the radio frequency signal from an antenna in order to produce usable information such as audio. The complexity of a modern receiver and the possible range of circuitry and methods employed are more generally covered in electronics and communications engineering.
Analog transmissionAnalog transmission is a transmission method of conveying information using a continuous signal which varies in amplitude, phase, or some other property in proportion to that information. It could be the transfer of an analog signal, using an analog modulation method such as frequency modulation (FM) or amplitude modulation (AM), or no modulation at all. Some textbooks also consider passband data transmission using a digital modulation method such as ASK, PSK and QAM, i.e.
Video Home SystemL’expression anglaise « Video Home System » (en français : « Système Vidéo Domestique »), mieux connue sous le sigle VHS, désigne une norme d’enregistrement de signaux vidéo sur bande magnétique de 0,5 pouce (1,27 cm) mise au point par la marque japonaise JVC à la fin des années 1970, et disparue progressivement au cours des années 2000. Le sigle VHS signifiait initialement « Vertical Helical Scan » (balayage hélicoïdal vertical), mais cette désignation est abandonnée rapidement, car trop difficile à mémoriser pour le grand public.
StopbandA stopband is a band of frequencies, between specified limits, through which a circuit, such as a filter or telephone circuit, does not allow signals to pass, or the attenuation is above the required stopband attenuation level. Depending on application, the required attenuation within the stopband may typically be a value between 20 and 120 dB higher than the nominal passband attenuation, which often is 0 dB. The lower and upper limiting frequencies, also denoted lower and upper stopband corner frequencies, are the frequencies where the stopband and the transition bands meet in a filter specification.
