  2. Laser designator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_designator

    When a target is marked by a designator, the beam is invisible and does not shine continuously. Instead, a series of coded laser pulses, also called PRF codes (pulse repetition frequency), are fired at the target.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Recycling_codes

    The presence on an item of a recycling code, a chasing arrows logo, or a resin code, is not an automatic indicator that a material is recyclable; it is an explanation of what the item is made of. Codes have been developed for batteries, biomatter/organic material, glass, metals, paper, and plastics. [citation needed]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radar_beacon

    In the United States a longer duty cycle is used, 50% for battery -powered buoys (20 seconds on, 20 seconds off) and 75% for on-shore beacons. Ramarks are wide-band beacons which transmit continuously on the radar bands without having to be triggered by an incoming radar signal.

  6. Parsons code - Wikipedia

    The Parsons code, formally named the Parsons code for melodic contours, is a simple notation used to identify a piece of music through melodic motion – movements of the pitch up and down. Denys Parsons (father of Alan Parsons) developed this system for his 1975 book The Directory of Tunes and Musical Themes. Representing a melody in this ...

    At very low energies, space charge has a large effect on a particle beam and thus becomes hard to calculate. See below for a list of programs that can handle low energy space charge forces. Synchrotron radiation effects. Can simulate the effect of synchrotron radiation emission on the particles being tracked.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coincidence_rangefinder

    A coincidence rangefinder or coincidence telemeter is a type of rangefinder that uses the principle of triangulation and an optical device to allow an operator to determine the distance to a visible object. There are subtypes split-image telemeter, inverted image, or double-image telemeter with different principles how two images in a single ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-frequency_direction...

    High-frequency direction finding, usually known by its abbreviation HF/DF or nickname huff-duff, is a type of radio direction finder (RDF) introduced in World War II. High frequency (HF) refers to a radio band that can effectively communicate over long distances; for example, between U-boats and their land-based headquarters.
