a) The length of time it takes for an audio signal to fall below the noise threshold. b) The adjustable length of time it takes for an ADO DigiTrail effect to complete. (The trail catches up with the primary video.) Decay Time
Industry:Entertainment
One-tenth of a Bel. It is a relative measure of signal or sound intensity or “volume.” It expresses the ratio of one intensity to another. One dB is about the smallest change in sound volume that the human ear can detect. (Can also express voltage and power ratios logarithmically.) Used to define the ratio of two powers, voltages, or currents. See the definitions of dB, dBm, and dBw.

Term used to describe the process by which an image file is reduced by throwing away sampled points. If an image array consisted of 100 samples on the X axis and 100 samples on the Y axis, and every other sample where thrown away, the image file is decimated by a factor of 2 and the size of the file is reduced by 1/4. If only one sample out of every four is saved, the decimation factor is 4 and the file size is 1/16 of the original. Decimation is a low-cost way of compressing video files and is found in many low-cost systems. Decimation however introduces many artifacts that are unacceptable in higher-cost systems.

The Decimation Filter is designed to provide decimation without the severe artifacts associated with throwing data away although artifacts still exist. (See the definition of Decimation.) The Decimation Filter process still throws data away but reduces image artifacts by smoothing out the voltage steps between sampled points.

A tape recorder that does not include power amplifiers or speakers.

a) Device used to recover the component signals from a composite (encoded) source. Decoders are used in displays and in various processing hardware where component signals are required from a composite source such as composite chroma keying or color correction equipment.
b) Device that changes NTSC signals into component signals; sometimes devices that change digital signals to analog (see DAC). All color TV sets must include an NTSC decoder. Because sets are so inexpensive, such decoders are often quite rudimentary. c) An embodiment of a decoding process.

The first-in first-out (FIFO) buffer specified in the video buffering verifier.
