Noise temperature (antenna) In radio frequency (RF) applications such as radio, radar and telecommunications, noise temperature of an antenna is a measure of the noise power density contributed by the antenna to the overall RF receiver system. It is defined as "the temperature of a resistor having an available thermal noise power per unit ...
Antenna gain-to-noise-temperature ( G/T) is a figure of merit in the characterization of antenna performance, where G is the antenna gain in decibels at the receive frequency, and T is the equivalent noise temperature of the receiving system in kelvins. The receiving system noise temperature is the summation of the antenna noise temperature and ...
Ku band. Ka band. v. t. e. DVB-T2 is an abbreviation for " Digital Video Broadcasting – Second Generation Terrestrial "; it is the extension of the television standard DVB-T, issued by the consortium DVB, devised for the broadcast transmission of digital terrestrial television. DVB has been standardized by ETSI .
A television antenna, also called a television aerial (in British English ), is an antenna specifically designed for use with a television receiver (TV) to receive terrestrial over-the-air (OTA) broadcast television signals from a television station. Terrestrial television is broadcast on frequencies from about 47 to 250 MHz in the very high ...
Digital television adapter. A digital television adapter ( DTA ), commonly known as a converter box or decoder box, is a television tuner that receives a digital television (DTV) transmission, and converts the digital signal into an analog signal that can be received and displayed on an analog television set. Some also have an HDMI output since ...
In telecommunications, a point-to-point connection refers to a communications connection between two communication endpoints or nodes. An example is a telephone call, in which one telephone is connected with one other, and what is said by one caller can only be heard by the other. This is contrasted with a point-to-multipoint or broadcast ...
Tower Mounted Amplifier. A Tower Mounted Amplifier ( TMA ), or Mast Head Amplifier ( MHA ), is a low-noise amplifier (LNA) mounted as close as practical to the antenna in mobile masts or base transceiver stations. A TMA reduces the base transceiver station noise figure (NF) and therefore improves its overall sensitivity; in other words the ...
A typical modern set-top box, along with its remote control - pictured here a digital terrestrial TV receiver by TEAC. A set-top box (STB), also known as a cable box, receiver, or simply box, and historically television decoder or a converter, [1] is an information appliance device that generally contains a TV tuner input and displays output to a television set, turning the source signal into ...
