Searching documents using keywords is a very common practice. This practice of word-based information retrieval is affected by two complimentary problems. First is, we may get some relevant as well as some irrelevant search results if we use the keyword along with some possible meaning of the same for the search. Second is, if only the title keyword is used then some relevant text may miss out as some times the text related to that keyword doesn’t contain that rather contains some context of that
(DC or AC converted to DC). Finally, a transducer (speaker in the case of Radio) is needed to convert the message signal into its final form (audio, mechanical, etc¡). Other components more specific to FM receivers are mixers combined with local oscillators used for frequency manipulation, limiters to control amplitude, de-emphasis and other filter circuits. 2 Mathematics of FM Unlike amplitude modulation (AM) where the message or modulating signal, call it m(t), is used to modulate the amplitude of
to manufacture the instrument. Leon Theremin stayed in America, where he met Clara Rockmore, the theremin's first virtuoso. Theremin worked on many variations of his original instrument including the Terpsitone (controlled by the entire body), an electric cello, and a theremin controlled only by the eyes. In 1954 Robert Moog (famous for his synthesizers of the same name) started production of the theremin. His company, Big Briar Inc., still produces them today. It also produces kits for those
digital. Analogue synths use “voltages and currents directly represent both audio signals and any control signals” (71). Digital synths are number based, they use “numbers to represent the audio and control signals” (72). Synthesizers are usually made up of “an oscillator, a filter, envelope and an amplifier” (“Synthesizers for Dummies”). An oscillator produces the sound from a “circuit that omits a repetitive sound” (Russ 421). Waveforms are a part of the oscillator; they are the “shapes of the

The gap should be adjustable as to control the amount of voltage that crosses it at one given time. Shortly after he was found dead by a maid in his hotel suite on January 7th, 1943 Nikola Tesla was a name rarely uttered. He soon fell out of the memory of the public. Despite this he was a man before his time. Tesla

1. INTRODUCTION Today, thanks to the advancement in the field of electronics, most of the manually controlled systems are getting replaced with sophisticated electronic circuits with intelligent controlls. These circuits are capable of monitoring, analyzing and controlling the systems. In earlier days these electronic circuits were fabricated around discrete hardware components such as transistors, logic ICs etc that made the system bulky and costly. Also since the component count was more the failure
coil gun. In this project, the DC converters have different type and characteristics. That is introducing four types of them namely, Buck, Boost, Buck-Boost and Cuk converter were studied and compared. In design 4A, implement the circuit of high voltage DC DC boost converter was simulated using the PSIM software. The PSIM software is widely adopted in universities, consultants, research centers, companies, etc. This software is fastest simulators for power electronics circuit. It is capable of simulate
The Use of Electronic Technology in 20th and 21st Century Music In this essay, I have examined the use of electronic technology within 20th and 21st Century music. This has involved analysis of the development and continuing refinement of the computer in today’s music industry, as well as the theory of the synthesiser and the various pioneers of electronic technology, including Dr. Robert Moog and Les Paul. Also within the essay, I have discussed the increasing use of computers in the

The Tesla coil is an instrument that sets high voltages at high frequencies to transmit a radio signal. In 1890 a vacuum tube lit up in his hand without any wire connection. This laid the groundworks of Tesla's obsession of the wireless transmission of energy. In 1892, Tesla was invited to Europe to
1 INTRODUCTION: Haptics is a recent enhancement to virtual environments allowing users to “touch” and feel the simulated objects with which they interact. Haptics is the science of touch. The word derives from the Greek haptikos meaning “being able to come into contact with”. The study of haptics emerged from advances in virtual reality. Virtual reality is a form of human-computer interaction (as opposed to keyboard, mouse and monitor) providing a virtual environment that one can explore through
I. INTRODUCTION Modern networking technologies are dramatically making major contributions to our Information Technology industry. Remote systems are acknowledged as a standout amongst the most climbing innovations in today's reality. The cheapest known stand-alone device used for communication is Intercom. Nearly all of your workplaces in addition to houses contain these kinds of convenient products. These plans are mounted for safety purposes so authenticated person easily identified. Nevertheless
AC offered great advantages over the DC system. By using Tesla's newly developed transformers, AC voltages could be stepped up and transmitted over long distances through thin wires. DC could not (requiring a large power plant every square mile while transmitting through very thick cables). Of course, a system of transmission would be incomplete without
