The RMSSD is the root mean square of successive differences between normal heartbeats. This value is obtained by first calculating each successive time difference between heartbeats in milliseconds. Each of the values is then squared and the result is averaged before the square root of the total is obtained. The RMSSD reflects the beat-to-beat variance in HR [heart rate] and is the primary time domain measure used to estimate the vagally mediated changes reflected in HRV [heart rate variability]. 4, record 1, English, - root%20mean%20square%20of%20successive%20differences%20between%20normal%20heartbeats

The SPOT satellites each have twin high resolution visible(HRV) imaging systems, which can be operated independently and simultaneously. Each HRV is capable of sensing either in a high spatial resolution single-channel panchromatic(PLA) mode, or a coarser spatial resolution three-channel multispectral(MLA) mode. Each along-track scanning HRV sensor consists of four linear arrays of detectors : one 6000 element array for the panchromatic mode recording at a spatial resolution of 10 m, and one 3000 element array for each of the three multispectral bands, recording at 20 m spatial resolution. The swath width for both modes is 60 km at nadir. 5, record 4, English, - high%2Dresolution%20visible

Tous les satellites SPOT ont deux balayeurs multibandes HRV (haute résolution visible) à barrettes, qui peuvent être opérés indépendamment ou simultanément. Chaque HRV peut capter en mode panchromatique (une seule bande) et offre une excellente limite de résolution spatiale de 10 m. Ils peuvent aussi capter en mode multibande (MLA) (trois bandes) qui offre une résolution spatiale de 20 m. Chaque balayeur à barrettes est composé de quatre rangs linéaires de détecteurs : un de 6 000 éléments pour l'enregistrement en mode panchromatique, et un de 3 000 éléments pour chacune des trois bandes multispectrales.

Les satellites de la série SPOT portent deux imageurs à haute résolution dans le visible (HRV) essentiellement identiques qui peuvent être exploités individuellement ou couplés dans divers modes. Ils présentent quatre lignes de détection virtuelles rectilignes et continues comportant chacune 6000 éléments récepteurs. Ces instruments ne sont cependant pas limités à la saisie au nadir. Chaque HRV est muni d'un appareil de pointage à miroir permettant l'imageage dans des directions choisies par l'utilisateur. Chaque imageur HRV peut être exploité suivant deux modes, le mode capteur à barrette multibande (MLA) et le mode capteur à barrette panchromatique (PLA). Le capteur MLA permet de recueillir des données dans trois bandes du spectre : 500 à 590 nm, résolution nominale au sol de 20 mètres au nadir. Le capteur PLA permet de recueillir des données dans la plage spectrale de 510 à 730 nm à une résolution nominale au sol de 10 mètres au nadir. 2, record 5, French, - imageur%20haute%20r%C3%A9solution%20dans%20le%20visible

[The] push-broom scanner [is a] type of imaging system... commonly used in optical remote sensing satellites such as SPOT. The imaging system has a linear detector array(usually of the CCD type) consisting of a number of detector elements(6000 elements in SPOT HRV). Each detector element projects an "instantaneous field of view(IFOV) "on the ground. The signal recorded by a detector element is proportional to the total radiation collected within its IFOV. At any instant, a row of pixels are formed. As the detector array flies along its track, the row of pixels sweeps along to generate a two-dimensional image. 2, record 6, English, - linear%20detector%20array
