unit1 1.quantity n. 数量 * In the physical world, any quantity measurable through time or over space can be taken as a signal. 译：在物理世界中，随时间或空间变化的可测量的物理量可看作信号。 Quality is better than quantity. 译：质量好胜过数量多。 2. definition n. 定义 define v. define…as... * Definitions specific to subfields are common. 译：面向专业的信号定义也很常见。 Unit 13 Signals in Communication 通信中的信号 Part Three Communication and Information Processing Technical terms: signal processing 信号处理 discrete-time signals 离散时域信号 continuous-time signals 连续时域信号 digital signals 数字信号 analog signals 模拟信号 Preparing for the text: Questions for text discussion: How does a message be carried from a transmitter to a receiver in communication system? In a communication system, a transmitter encodes a message into a signal, which is carried to a receiver by the communication channel. 2. What are discrete signals? Discrete-time signals are often referred to as time series. 3. Take some examples of analog and digital signals. For example, audio and video signals are analog, sampling signals are digital. Preparing for the text: The main idea of this unit: This unit mainly discusses the signals in communication systems. Give the definition and some examples of signals in the physical world and the complex society. (2) In a communication system, a transmitter encodes a message into a signal, which is carried to a receiver by the communications channel. (3) Signals can be categorized in various ways. Two main types of signals encountered in practice are analog and digital.
