  2. Automatic frequency control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_frequency_control

    У = RF amplifier stages, Д = frequency discriminator stage. In radio equipment, Automatic Frequency Control ( AFC ), also called Automatic Fine Tuning ( AFT ), is a method or circuit to automatically keep a resonant circuit tuned to the frequency of an incoming radio signal. It is primarily used in radio receivers to keep the receiver tuned ...

  3. Voltage-controlled oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voltage-controlled_oscillator

    A voltage-controlled oscillator ( VCO) is an electronic oscillator whose oscillation frequency is controlled by a voltage input. The applied input voltage determines the instantaneous oscillation frequency. Consequently, a VCO can be used for frequency modulation (FM) or phase modulation (PM) by applying a modulating signal to the control input ...

  4. Automatic gain control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_gain_control

    Schematic of an AGC used in the analog telephone network; the feedback from output level to gain is effected via a Vactrol resistive opto-isolator.. Automatic gain control (AGC) is a closed-loop feedback regulating circuit in an amplifier or chain of amplifiers, the purpose of which is to maintain a suitable signal amplitude at its output, despite variation of the signal amplitude at the input.

  5. Radio control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_control

    Radio control (often abbreviated to RC) is the use of control signals transmitted by radio to remotely operate a device. Examples of simple radio control systems are garage door openers and keyless entry systems for vehicles, in which a small handheld radio transmitter unlocks or opens doors. Radio control is also used for control of model ...

  6. Radio-frequency engineering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio-frequency_engineering

    t. e. Radio-frequency (RF) engineering is a subset of electrical engineering involving the application of transmission line, waveguide, antenna, radar, and electromagnetic field principles to the design and application of devices that produce or use signals within the radio band, the frequency range of about 20 kHz up to 300 GHz. [1] [2] [3]

  7. Servo (radio control) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Servo_(radio_control)

    The servo is controlled by three wires: ground, power, and control. The servo will move based on the pulses sent over the control wire, which set the angle of the actuator arm. The servo expects a pulse every 20 ms in order to gain correct information about the angle. The width of the servo pulse dictates the range of the servo's angular motion.

  8. Software-defined radio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software-defined_radio

    Software-defined radio ( SDR) is a radio communication system where components that conventionally have been implemented in analog hardware (e.g. mixers, filters, amplifiers, modulators / demodulators, detectors, etc.) are instead implemented by means of software on a computer or embedded system. [1] While the concept of SDR is not new, the ...

  9. Dynamic carrier control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_carrier_control

    Dynamic carrier control. Dynamic carrier control ( DCC) is a method of reducing power consumption in radio transmitters during periods of low audio activity or silence. It is a type of Modulation-Dependent Carrier Level control, or MDCL. All modern high-power (>50 kW) shortwave radio transmitters incorporate DCC of some kind, as well as some ...
