Within the world of audio frequency testing, traditionally single sine waves or noise signals have been used.
Using a noise signal which is inherently random requires considerable averaging in order to get a clear idea of a trend.
On the other hand, independent white noise signals will not make the algorithm diverge.
Just outside of the rubber/plastic covering is a conductive metal that intercepts any noise signal.
Because the conductive metal is grounded, the noise signal runs straight to ground before ever getting to the true wire.
A noise signal is typically considered as a linear addition to a useful information signal.
It is used to characterize a noise signal in the frequency range where the human ear has its highest sensitivity.
Every station on the planet will be drowned in a pure noise signal.
An infinite-bandwidth white noise signal is a purely theoretical construction.
This model is called a Gaussian white noise signal (or process).
