  2. Ten-code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ten-code

    Ten-codes, officially known as ten signals, are brevity codes used to represent common phrases in voice communication, particularly by law enforcement and in citizens band (CB) radio transmissions. The police version of ten-codes is officially known as the APCO Project 14 Aural Brevity Code.

  3. Signal strength and readability report - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_strength_and...

    Signal strength and readability report. A signal strength and readability report is a standardized format for reporting the strength of the radio signal and the readability (quality) of the radiotelephone (voice) or radiotelegraph (Morse code) signal transmitted by another station as received at the reporting station's location and by their ...

  4. Radiotelephony procedure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiotelephony_procedure

    Voice procedure communications are intended to maximize clarity of spoken communication and reduce errors in the verbal message by use of an accepted nomenclature. It consists of a signalling protocol such as the use of abbreviated codes like the CB radio ten-code, Q codes in amateur radio and aviation, police codes, etc., and jargon.

  5. Plain language radio checks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plain_language_radio_checks

    A plain-language radio check is the means of requesting and giving a signal strength and readability report for radiotelephony (voice) communications, and is the direct equivalent to the QSA and QRK code used to give the same report in radiotelegraph communications.

  6. GPS signals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GPS_signals

    Acquiring a signal is the process of determining the frequency and code phase (both relative to receiver time) when it was previously unknown. Code phase must be determined within an accuracy that depends on the receiver design (especially the tracking loop); 0.5 times the duration of code chips (approx. 0.489 μs) is a representative value.

  7. Police code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Police_code

    A police code is a brevity code, usually numerical or alphanumerical, used to transmit information between law enforcement over police radio systems in the United States. Examples of police codes include " 10 codes " (such as 10-4 for "okay" or "acknowledged"—sometimes written X4 or X-4), signals, incident codes, response codes , or other ...

  9. Letter frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency

    Letter frequency is the number of times letters of the alphabet appear on average in written language. Letter frequency analysis dates back to the Arab mathematician Al-Kindi (c. 801 –873 AD), who formally developed the method to break ciphers.

  10. Low-density parity-check code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-density_parity-check_code

    In information theory, a low-density parity-check (LDPC) code is a linear error correcting code, a method of transmitting a message over a noisy transmission channel. [1] [2] An LDPC code is constructed using a sparse Tanner graph (subclass of the bipartite graph ). [3]

  11. Citizens band radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Citizens_band_radio

    Cobra 50 WX ST Handheld CB Radio. Citizens band radio ( CB radio) is a land mobile radio system, a system allowing short-distance one-to-many bidirectional voice communication among individuals, using two-way radios operating near 27 MHz (or the 11-m wavelength) in the high frequency or shortwave band. Citizens band is distinct from other ...
