radio and pulse

One way to measure the distance to an object is to transmit a short pulse of radio signal ( electromagnetic radiation ) and measure the time it takes for the reflection to return.

Most radio systems utilize amplitude modulation for the radio signal and encode the control positions with pulse width modulation.
Upgraded radio systems are available that use the more robust frequency modulation and pulse code modulation.
Typical radio control systems for radio-controlled models employ pulse width modulation ( PWM ), pulse position modulation ( PPM ) and more recently spread spectrum technology, and actuate the various control surfaces using servomechanisms.
PWM is most commonly used in radio control equipment today, where transmitter controls change the width ( duration ) of the pulse for that channel between 920 µs and 2120 µs, 1520 µs being the center ( neutral ) position.
The broadcaster periodically sends out a short pulse of a power radio signal, and a small amount of that signal is also sent to the oscilloscope to " trigger " it, sending its beam sweeping quickly across the display.
Ultra wideband was formerly known as " pulse radio ", but the FCC and the International Telecommunication Union Radiocommunication Sector ( ITU-R ) currently define UWB in terms of a transmission from an antenna for which the emitted signal bandwidth exceeds the lesser of 500 MHz or 20 % of the center frequency.
Servos made for model radio control include some of the electronics required to convert the pulse to the motor position – the receiver is merely required to demultiplex the separate channels and feed the pulses to each servo.
EY-NPMA codes priority choices and other functions into one variable length radio pulse preceding the packet data.
The MRI machine emits an RF ( radio frequency ) pulse that specifically binds only to hydrogen.
Image resolution of SAR in its range coordinate ( expressed in image pixels per distance unit ) is mainly proportional to the radio bandwidth of whatever type of pulse is used.
The rate in the calculation is the velocity of the radio pulse, which is the speed of light ( roughly ).

Radar systems generally work by connecting an antenna to a powerful radio transmitter to emit a short pulse of signal.
Electromagnetic ( radio or sound ) waves are conceptually pure single frequency phenomena while pulses may be mathematically thought of as composed of a number of pure frequencies which sum and nullify in interactions creating a pulse train of the specific amplitudes, PRRs, base frequencies, phase characteristics, etcetera ( See Fourier Analysis ).
The multipath channel through which a radio wave transmits can be viewed as transmitting the original ( line of sight ) wave pulse through a number of multipath components.
The velocity factor ( VF ), also called wave propagation speed or velocity of propagation ( VoP or ), of a transmission medium is the speed at which a wavefront ( of an acoustic signal, for example, or an electromagnetic signal, a radio signal, a light pulse in a fibre channel or a change of the electrical voltage on a copper wire ) passes through the medium, relative to the speed of light.
This signal can be a simple radio pulse or a unique coded signal from the chest strap ( such as Bluetooth, ANT, or other low-power radio link ); the latter prevents one user's receiver from using signals from other nearby transmitters ( known as cross-talk interference ).

With a radio operator initiating a call, the process normally takes a few minutes for the ALE to pick an HF frequency that is optimum for both sides of the communication link.
Path loss normally includes propagation losses caused by the natural expansion of the radio wave front in free space ( which usually takes the shape of an ever-increasing sphere ), absorption losses ( sometimes called penetration losses ), when the signal passes through media not transparent to electromagnetic waves, diffraction losses when part of the radiowave front is obstructed by an opaque obstacle, and losses caused by other phenomena.
By instead comparing the radiated power in a given direction to the actual power that the antenna receives from the transmitter, the power gain takes into account that poorer efficiency, making it a more useful figure of merit for the ability of a transmitter in sending a radio wave toward a receiver.
At breakfast the next morning, during alarming radio reports, Klaatu takes in his fellow boarders ' suspicions and speculations about the alien visit.
An RF modulator ( or radio frequency modulator ) is a device that takes a baseband input signal and outputs a radio frequency-modulated signal.

In the United States and Canada, some radio stations are granted clear channel status, meaning that they broadcast on frequencies with few other stations allocated, allowing an extended coverage area when skywave propagation takes over at night, starting at or near local sunset.
