Le principe de la télémétrie laser est le suivant : un émetteur laser envoie une impulsion qui est retransmise par un réflecteur [...] vers un télescope récepteur très proche de l'émetteur. On mesure alors le temps de propagation aller et retour, d'où la distance. [...]  4, record 1, French, - t%C3%A9l%C3%A9m%C3%A9trie%20laser

Several automatic decision-making criteria have been used to determine the beginning, end, and center of the target. Two principal types are the sliding window and the sequential observer. The sliding-window detector... stores the number of radar returns at target range within each prescribed incremental range-resolution element during the past N azimuthal trials. If the number of returns exceeds a predesignated value... the target is declared to be detected.  2, record 2, English, - sliding%20window

Pour réaliser le traitement de la vidéo d'un radar à antenne tournante, le test est appliqué aux signaux recueillis dans une fenêtre glissante [...] Cette fenêtre est très étroite en distance et elle s'étend en azimut sur une portion de faisceau d'antenne. Sa forme est adaptée à la non stationnarité du Clutter. La distribution varie rapidement avec la distance; par contre, elle varie lentement entre deux récurrences successives (à même distance) à cause de la corrélation spatiale due au faisceau d'antenne.  1, record 2, French, - fen%C3%AAtre%20glissante

Positively or negatively charged ions entering the sensor are first detected by the charge that they induce when they fly through the entrance grid. This charge signal will only be evaluated if the ion subsequently impacts the impact plasma detector.
