I don't think telecommunication necessarily involves knowing how much information is going to be lost in transmission. Information theory is intrinsically interesting, and it's certainly relevant to the design of present-day communications systems. But some of the systems were there long before the theory.--AMT
I agree -certainly telegraph and crank telephones had little error checking capability. I don't know enough to do a rewrite though. -rmhermen
This article says that: "From the demand of telecom circuitry, a whole specialist area of integrated circuit design has emerged, called digital signal processing." But I don't quite agree with this definition of DSP or wording of this sentence. At least to my experience DSP is not just circuit design (=I work with DSP and know nothing about circuits), but a much larger entity. I feel like half of information technology is DSP. However, I didn't quite come up with a better wording. --tbackstr
Hi, I hang out in the math areas of the Wikipedia mostly, and looking through the most requested articles, I found that unit interval was a hot unwritten topic. So I wrote an article for it. Then I found that all of the articles asking for it were on telecommunications, and using it in a sense not reflected in the article that I wrote.
I went ahead and linked to my article from all of the relevant math articles, so it isn't pointless, but you all may want to have your say too. I left you a spot, so go to unit interval and tell us what that means in your field.
- Done. Thank you!
Missing 's' in name of article
It's this article that ought to redirect to "Telecommunications", not the other way around. The word is quite uncommon in its singular form, and "telecommunications" is the name of the field, construed as a singular, not "telecommunication". This is like having an article on languange "semantic" rather than semantics. -- 130.94.162.64 00:32, 19 February 2006 (UTC)
- Nor do we have (or want) an article on "mathematic". (That one redirects to mathematics.) If the article had a correct title, perhaps someone knowledgeable would actually contribute to it. (Not I, though.) -- 130.94.162.64 17:20, 20 February 2006 (UTC)
Symmetric response routing
What does we exactly mean by "Symmetric Response Routing"?
