Response Definition and 538 Threads

The dose–response relationship, or exposure–response relationship, describes the magnitude of the response of an organism, as a function of exposure (or doses) to a stimulus or stressor (usually a chemical) after a certain exposure time. Dose–response relationships can be described by dose–response curves. This is explained further in the following sections. A stimulus response function or stimulus response curve is defined more broadly as the response from any type of stimulus, not limited to chemicals.

    Trying to intuit the unit impulse response

    Homework Statement Hi there, I've been trying to gain some intuition on how the convolution sum works, but as I dig deeper I am realizing that there is an issue with my intuition of signals and systems, in particular the unit impulse response. My issue is trying to understand how a unit...

    Why Is the Picture Carrier Placed 6 dB Down in the IF Response Curve?

    Hi folks, My query is that... As one can see that in the IF response curve the picture carrier is placed 6db down the amplitude curve. Such a placement modifies the output of video detector in such a way that the picture carrier lies at half point or 50 % of the total amplitude. Now this whole...
