In a communication system, the end-to-end delay of a packet may be defined as the time from its generation at the source to when the packet reaches its destination. In a packet-switched communication system, the delay for packets to travel from source to destination may vary depending upon various operating conditions, including but not limited to, channel conditions and network loading. Channel conditions refer to the quality of the wireless link. Some factors determining the quality of the wireless link are signal strength, speed of a mobile and/or physical obstructions. The end-to-end delay includes the delays introduced in the network and the various elements through which the packet passes. Many factors contribute to end-to-end delay. Variance in the end-to-end delay is referred to as jitter. 3, record 1, English, - end%2Dto%2Dend%20delay

... when the remote clock frequency is consistently higher than the local clock frequency, the end-to-end system delay increases. When the remote clock frequency is consistently lower than the local clock frequency, the end-to-end system delay decreases. When the current value differs from the stored value for end-to-end delay by a value equal to one frame, and other external criteria are met, a frame is either dropped or added. 2, record 1, English, - end%2Dto%2Dend%20delay

A partial or radical synovectomy can be carried out arthroscopically using a shaver less than 3 mm in diameter and a thermocouple probe system or a small suction punch device. Care should be exercised when using the shaver or a punch to avoid iatrogenic compromise of the capsular ligaments themselves. Because of the small diameter of the shaver, the suction sheath frequently becomes clogged with debrided tissue.

1. vector sights - Sighting systems using the vector principle and incorporating a mechanical representation of the vectors of the bombing triangle. a. pre-set vector - A sighting system in which the values for height, airspeed and wind are set manually on the bomb sight. b. continuously set vector - A sighting system in which the values for height, airspeed and drift are automatically and continuously updated. 2. tachometric or synchronous sights - Sighting systems which automatically release the bomb at the correct bombing angle by maintaining the sight line on the target, thus determining the speed relative to the target and in some cases the track through the target. 3. angular velocity sight - A sighting system in which the correct release point is determined when the angular velocity of the target relative to the bomb aimer reaches a precomputed value. 1, record 11, English, - bomb%20sighting%20system

1. viseur vectoriel - Viseur basé sur une représentation vectorielle des grandeurs utilisées. Il comporte un mécanisme qui reproduit mécaniquement le triangle de visée. On distingue : a. le viseur à préaffichage - Les valeurs de la hauteur de bombardement, de la vitesse par rapport à l'air et du vent sont affichées à la main une fois pour toutes. b. le viseur à affichage continu - La hauteur, la vitesse par rapport à l'air et le vent sont constamment réajustées automatiquement. 2. viseur tachymétrique ou synchronisé - Viseur qui largue la bombe au moment où l'angle de bombardement correct est atteint. Ce type de viseur maintient la ligne de visée sur la cible, déterminant ainsi la vitesse exacte par rapport à l'objectif. Il peut aussi maintenir la route suivie par l'avion de façon à la faire passer par la cible. 3. viseur à déplacement angulaire - Viseur qui permet la détermination du point de largage correct par coïncidence entre le défilement angulaire mesuré de l'objectif par rapport au bombardier et une valeur prédéterminée et préaffichée. 1, record 11, French, - viseur%20de%20bombardement

Se distinguen : a. de vectores preestablecidos-Sistema en el que los valores de la altura, velocidad respecto al aire y del viento se introducen normalmente en el sistema una sola vez. b. de establecimiento continuo-Sistema en el que los valores de la altura, velocidad respecto al aire y del viento se reajustan automáticamente de forma continua. 2. visores tacométricos o sincronizados-Visores que sueltan la bomba de forma automática en el momento correspondiente al ángulo de bombardeo correcto. Este tipo de visores mantienen la línea de puntería sobre el blanco determinando así la velocidad relativa del objetivo y en algunos casos la ruta para el seguimiento. 3. visores de velocidad angular-Sistema de visores en los que el punto de lanzamiento se determina mediante la velocidad angular del objetivo con respecto al avión de bombardeo.(Cuando alcanza un valor previamente calculado). 1, record 11, Spanish, - sistemas%20de%20visores%20de%20bombardeo
