In a video display, distortion wherein the entirety of some object (or objects) that appeared in a previous frame (and that should no longer appear) remain in the current frame and in subsequent frames as a faded image or as an outline.
Industry:Telecommunications
In a video display, distortion that is concentrated at or near the edge of objects, and that is categorized further by its temporal and spatial characteristics.
Industry:Telecommunications
In a video display, distortion sometimes seen around the edges of moving objects, and characterized by moving artifacts around edges and/or by blotchy noise patterns superimposed over the objects, resembling a mosquito flying around a person's head and shoulders.
Industry:Telecommunications
In a video display, distortion in which a fragment of an object that appeared in a previous frame (and should no longer appear) remains in the current and subsequent video frames.
Industry:Telecommunications
In A trusted-computing-base (TCB) design, a character entered from a terminal that tells the TCB the user wants a secure communications path from the terminal to some trusted node to provide a secure service for the user.
Industry:Telecommunications
In a tree structure, a search in which it is possible to decide, at each step, which part of the tree may be rejected without a further search.
Industry:Telecommunications
In a transparent material, anisotropism of the refractive index, which varies as a function of polarization as well as orientation with respect to the incident ray. Note 1: The term "birefringence" means, literally, "double refraction. " Note 2: All crystals except those of cubic lattice structure exhibit some degree of anisotropy with regard to their physical properties, including refractive index. Other materials, such as glasses or plastics, become birefringent when subjected to mechanical strain. Note 3: Birefringent materials, including crystals, have the ability to refract an unpolarized incident ray into two separate, orthogonally polarized rays, which in the general case take different paths, depending on orientation of the material with respect to the incident ray. The refracted rays are referred to as the "ordinary," or "O" ray, which obeys Snell's Law, and the "extraordinary," or "E" ray, which does not. Synonym double refraction.
Industry:Telecommunications
In a transmission path or device, noise, generated during modulation and demodulation, that results from nonlinear characteristics in the path or device.
Industry:Telecommunications
In a transmission system, a path used for system control, synchronization, checking, signaling, and service signals used in system management and operations rather than for the data, messages, or calls of the users.
