Manchester then had two competing power companies until 1904, when the Manchester Light and Power Company purchased the transmission system of the Vail Company.

Axons are in effect the primary transmission lines of the nervous system, and as bundles they help make up nerves.

A practical television system needs to take luminance, chrominance ( in a color system ), synchronization ( horizontal and vertical ), and audio signals, and broadcast them over a radio transmission.

The transmission system must include a means of television channel selection.

The maximum frame rate depends on the bandwidth of the electronics and the transmission system, and the number of horizontal scan lines in the image.

In an imaging system, it occurs when light from one point of an object does not converge into ( or does not diverge from ) a single point after transmission through the system.

The distinction between broadcast and collision domains comes about because simple Ethernet and similar systems use a shared transmission system.

The result is a network based on a nominally shared transmission system ; like Ethernet, but in which " client " nodes cannot communicate with each other, only with the server / provider.

A character encoding system consists of a code that pairs each character from a given repertoire with something else — such as a bit pattern, sequence of natural numbers, octets, or electrical pulses — in order to facilitate the transmission of data ( generally numbers or text ) through telecommunication networks or for data storage.

* Cascading failure, a failure in a system of interconnected parts, for example a power transmission grid, where the service provided depends on the operation of a preceding part, and the failure of a preceding part can trigger the failure of successive parts.

Once the transmission characteristics of a system are determined, telecommunication engineers design the transmitters and receivers needed for such systems.

The primary benefit promised by ECC is a smaller key size, reducing storage and transmission requirements — i. e., that an elliptic curve group could provide the same level of security afforded by an RSA-based system with a large modulus and correspondingly larger key — e. g., a 256bit ECC public key should provide comparable security to a 3072bit RSA public key ( see # Key sizes ).

In the 1970s, the ground-based Omega Navigation System, based on phase comparison of signal transmission from pairs of stations, became the first worldwide radio navigation system.

# Autonomic nervous system transmission: both the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems are regulated by GPCR pathways, responsible for control of many automatic functions of the body such as blood pressure, heart rate, and digestive processes

These sayings spread by oral transmission ; later the founder's disciples set them in writing, developing the thoughts of their master into a system.

At that time, the transmission system included 17, 700 kilometers of line.

Harry Nyquist's 1924 paper, Certain Factors Affecting Telegraph Speed, contains a theoretical section quantifying " intelligence " and the " line speed " at which it can be transmitted by a communication system, giving the relation, where W is the speed of transmission of intelligence, m is the number of different voltage levels to choose from at each time step, and K is a constant.

The system attempts to enforce confidentiality by encrypting the card number during transmission, by limiting the places where it might appear ( in databases, log files, backups, printed receipts, and so on ), and by restricting access to the places where it is stored.

ISDN is a circuit-switched telephone network system, which also provides access to packet switched networks, designed to allow digital transmission of voice and data over ordinary telephone copper wires, resulting in potentially better voice quality than an analog phone can provide.

As is the case with any vehicle powered by an internal combustion engine, diesel locomotives require some type of power transmission system to couple the output of the prime mover to the driving wheels.

** International telephone system: landline connections to Latvia and Poland ; major international connections are to Denmark, Sweden, and Norway by submarine cable for further transmission by satellite

The government-backed Luxembourg satellite company " Société européenne des satellites " ( SES ) was created in 1986 to install and operate a satellite telecommunications system for transmission of television programs throughout Europe.

Potential contributors to latency in an audio system include analog-to-digital conversion, buffering, digital signal processing, transmission time, digital-to-analog conversion and the speed of sound in air.

The company is a sole operator of oil and gas exploration and production, as well as domestic gas transmission through a onshore pipeline grid.

This was commonly used to identify a station ; the operator could press the key to send the station identifier to the other end, or the remote station could trigger its transmission by sending the ENQ character, essentially asking " who are you?

The transmission network is usually administered on a regional basis by an entity such as a regional transmission organization or transmission system operator.

Furthermore it provides the ability to the operator to predict the behavior of the transmission system upon major changes made to its initial operating conditions.

Push-to-type operation: In telegraph or data transmission systems, that method of communication in which the operator at a station must keep a switch operated in order to send messages.

This permitted the operator to prepare the message " off-line " at the operator's best typing speed, and permitted the operator to correct any error prior to transmission.

EDF Energy Networks is the Distribution network operator licensed to distribute electricity from the transmission grid to homes and businesses in Mill Hill.

Older tractors usually have unsynchronized transmission designs, which often require the operator stop the tractor to shift between gears.

For existing unsynchronized tractors, the methods of circumvention are double clutching or power-shifting, both of which require the operator to rely on skill to speed-match the gears while shifting, and are undesirable from a risk-mitigation standpoint because of what can go wrong if the operator makes a mistake – transmission damage is possible, and loss of vehicle control can occur if the tractor is towing a heavy load either uphill or downhill – something that tractors often do.

The operator presses on this pedal to disengage the transmission for either shifting gears or stopping the tractor.

The actual useful power of any traction engine can be calculated using a dynamometer to measure torque and rotational speed, with peak power sustained when transmission and / or operator keeps the product of torque and rotational speed maximised.

* National Grid plc, a former name of National Grid Electricity Transmission plc, the operator of the British electricity transmission system

* Transmission system operator, an entity involved in electric power transmission or transmission of natural gas

There is therefore a physical requirement for a controlling agency, the transmission system operator, to coordinate the dispatch of generating units to meet the expected demand of the system across the transmission grid.

EDF Energy Networks is the Distribution network operator licensed to distribute electricity from the transmission grid to homes and businesses in Leytonstone.

This allowed the torque shaft to clear the rotary base junction, which provided electrical power to turn the turret, while connecting to the transmission box mounted in the hull between the driver and radio operator.

A clutch was still provided to allow the operator to stop the machine and change transmission gears.

during the same period around sunrise, skywave transmission is declining, until at about 2 hours after sunrise it reaches a point where it becomes of little practical significance.

In the daytime, on the other hand, since skywave transmission is relatively inefficient, it is possible to assign a substantially larger number of stations on these channels.

Essentially, the question presented for decision in the present Daytime Skywave proceeding is whether our decision ( in 1938-1939 ) to assign stations on the basis of daytime conditions from sunrise to sunset, is sound as a basis for AM allocations, or whether, in the light of later developments and new understanding, skywave transmission is of such significance during the hours immediately before sunset and after sunrise that this condition should be taken into account, and some stations required to afford protection to other stations during these hours.

As retinal images are conceded to be an integral function of the brain it seems logical to suppose that the nerves, between the inner brain and the eyes, carry the direct drive for cooperation from the various brain centers -- rather than to theorize on the transmission of an image which is already in required location.

Folklore is individually created art that a homogeneous group of people preserve, vary and recreate through oral transmission.

It allows compact encoding, but is less reliable for data transmission ; an error in transmitting the shift code typically makes a long part of the transmission unreadable.

Another feature unique to amphibians is the columella-opercular complex, adjoining the auditory capsule, which is involved in the transmission of both airborne and seismic signals.

Elaborate arborization is important for it allows for the simultaneous transmission of messages to a large number of target neurons within a single region of the brain.

As neither tune is attributed and both show elements of oral transmission, scholars can only speculate that they are possibly of British origin.

Jay comments that this is sometimes seen as an early reference to the idea of the transmission of grace through the apostolic succession which in later centuries was understood as being specifically transmitted through the laying on of hands by a bishop within the apostolic succession ( the " pipeline theory ").

Analog ( or analogue ) television is the analog transmission that involves the broadcasting of encoded analog audio and analog video signal: one in which the information to be transmitted, the brightness and colors of the points in the image and the sound waves of the audio signal are represented by continuous variations of some aspect of the signal ; its amplitude, frequency or phase.

Specifically, at speeds of OC-3 and above, the cost of segmentation and reassembly ( SAR ) hardware makes ATM less competitive for IP than Packet Over SONET ( POS ); because of its fixed 48-byte cell payload, ATM is not suitable as a data link layer directly underlying IP ( without the need for SAR at the data link level ) since the OSI layer on which IP operates must provide a maximum transmission unit ( MTU ) of at least 576 bytes.

# UBR-Unspecified bit rate: traffic is allocated to all remaining transmission capacity.

In telecommunications, asynchronous communication is transmission of data without the use of an external clock signal, where data can be transmitted intermittently rather than in a steady stream .< ref >

In data transmission systems a byte is defined as a contiguous sequence of binary bits in a serial data stream, such as in modem or satellite communications, which is the smallest meaningful unit of data.

Satellite transmission is provided by TV Vlaanderen.

Satellite transmission ( DVB-S ) in Flanders, Brussels and Wallonia is operated by Airfield Belgium or Digidream.

It is this fact that leads some scholars to believe that Beowulf has endured a long and complicated transmission through all the main dialect areas.

Kiernan argues that it is virtually impossible that there could have been a process of transmission which could have sustained the complicated mix of forms from dialect to dialect, from generation to generation, and from scribe to scribe.
