  2. Signal-to-noise ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal-to-noise_ratio

    The plots at the bottom show the signal intensity in the indicated row of the image (red: original signal, blue: with noise). Signal-to-noise ratio ( SNR or S/N) is a measure used in science and engineering that compares the level of a desired signal to the level of background noise. SNR is defined as the ratio of signal power to noise power ...

  3. Mode (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mode_(statistics)

    For the music theory concept of "modes", see Mode (music). In statistics, the mode is the value that appears most often in a set of data values. [ 1 ] If X is a discrete random variable, the mode is the value x at which the probability mass function takes its maximum value (i.e., x=argmaxxi P (X = xi) ). In other words, it is the value that is ...

  4. Median - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Median

    Because the median is simple to understand and easy to calculate, while also a robust approximation to the mean, the median is a popular summary statistic in descriptive statistics. In this context, there are several choices for a measure of variability : the range , the interquartile range , the mean absolute deviation , and the median ...

  5. Log-distance path loss model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log-distance_path_loss_model

    is the reference distance, usually 1 km (or 1 mile) for a large cell and 1 m to 10 m for a microcell. [1] is the path loss exponent. is a normal (Gaussian) random variable with zero mean, reflecting the attenuation (in decibels) caused by flat fading [citation needed]. In the case of no fading, this variable is 0.

  7. Likelihood-ratio test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Likelihood-ratio_test

    Likelihood-ratio test. In statistics, the likelihood-ratio test is a hypothesis test that involves comparing the goodness of fit of two competing statistical models, typically one found by maximization over the entire parameter space and another found after imposing some constraint, based on the ratio of their likelihoods.

  8. Standard deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_deviation

    The mean and the standard deviation of a set of data are descriptive statistics usually reported together. In a certain sense, the standard deviation is a "natural" measure of statistical dispersion if the center of the data is measured about the mean. This is because the standard deviation from the mean is smaller than from any other point.

  9. Frequency deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency_deviation

    Frequency deviation ( ) is used in FM radio to describe the difference between the minimum or maximum extent of a frequency modulated signal, and the nominal center or carrier frequency. The term is sometimes mistakenly used as synonymous with frequency drift, which is an unintended offset of an oscillator from its nominal frequency.
