13 Glossary A AAC (Advanced Audio Coding) An audio compression scheme defined as part of the MPEG-2 standard (also known as MPEG2 AAC or MPEG-2 NBC, or Not Backwards Compatible). It offers better sound and a compression ratio that is superior by roughly 30 percent compared to the MPEG-1 MP3 format. AC (alternating current) An alternating current is an electrical current whose magnitude and direction vary cyclically, as opposed to DC (direct current), whose direction remains constant.
D dB (Decibel) A unit of measure used to express relative difference in power or intensity of sound. D DC (direct current) Direct current or continuous current is the constant flow of electric charge. This is typically in a conductor such as a wire. In direct current, the electric charges flow in the same direction, distinguishing it from AC (alternating current). Digital A method to encode information using a binary code of 0s and 1s. Many wireless phones and networks use digital technology.
for which they were made, so their response is limited, but still a necessary point to consider when designing a complete sound system. H Hi-Fi (High Fidelity) A method of sound reproduction that emphasizes the highest possible adherence to the exact character of the original sound. This is a principal that must be paramount in every stage of the recording, transportation, and recreation of the signal to be fully operational.
Mute A control found on receivers, and some mixers or signal processing units that silences (mutes) a signal path, or output. O Ohm Measure of resistance to current (impedance). The lower the impedance of a speaker, the harder it is to drive. P PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) Pioneering form of digital recording. R RDS (Radio Data System) RDS tuners can automatically tune in stations according to the types of music (or talk) they broadcast.
Signal to noise ratio Represents the difference between the level of the audio signal, and any interference. The larger the figure, the purer the sound. SPL (sound pressure level) An acoustic measurement of sound energy. 1 dB SPL is the smallest increment in sound level to which the average human is sensitive. Theoretically, 0 dB SPL is the threshold of human hearing while approximately 120 dB is the threshold of pain. Stereo Literally means solid.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) All 802.11b (Wi-Fi / wireless) networks use WEP as their basic security protocol. WEP secures data transmissions using 64-bit or 128-bit encryption; however, it does not offer complete security and is usually used in conjunction with other security measures such as EAP. WPA / WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access) A Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve upon the security features of WEP.
