Compression of impulses

Compression of pulses - the process of filtering the matched radar echo from the object of the compound probe, which maximizes the radar echo / noise ratio without losing the radiolocation information contained therein. The use of a probe signal (most commonly an LMCz signal) allows for the required radial velocity discrimination (with a sufficiently long pulse duration) and the required distance discrimination (due to impulse independent pulse duration). The use of intra-pulse modulation makes the duration of the pulse before filtration longer than the duration of the pulse after filtration. The ratio of these two times is called the compression ratio. wiki

Conditional compilation

Conditional compilation is a compilation technique used in many programming languages. It depends on the compilation of the code fragments of the program from meeting the specified conditions. This technique is used to create different versions of programs based on the same source code, for example for differentiation for test and final program. The programming language for conditional compilation must have a conditional compilation directive and compile directives allowing defining conditions. The conditional compilation directive is in most cases modeled on a conditional statement. An example of a language that supports conditional compilation is C, where it is supported on the preprocessor level. Example in C / C ++ Sample contents of test.c: #ifdef TEST double test = M_PI; #else float test = M_E; #endif When compiling this computer program with a defined TEST macro (eg using gcc - gcc test.c - D TEST or by using the preprocessor directive #define TEST), this will be equi...

Petrarkizm

Petrarchism - a literary tendency based on the imitation of the Renaissance work of the Italian poet Francesco Petrarch as a model of love poetry. In later era, Petrarch's poems had many followers. The descriptions of women's beauty contained in the poems of the Italian master have become an unattainable model for all love poets, and the name of Laura - the symbol of the perfect mistress. Petrarch's followers took over from their master the manner of presenting their beloved, subtle analyzes of feelings and stylistic features characteristic of the author's sonnets to Laura, such as antithesis and contrasts. This phenomenon of referring European poets to the medieval pattern was extremely durable, because it was alive until the 19th century. Petrarchism in Poland Petrarchism has not gained such popularity in Poland as in other European countries. The reasons for this are complex, including lack of the tradition of neo-Platonic philosophy and the medieval love poetry...

baked

Bakt - an annual tribute imposed on Nubia, delivered to the Muslim rulers of Egypt. The Arabic word bakt probably comes from the Latin word pactum, adopted through Hellenic Greek.
