Théorie de la détection du signal : dans cette théorie, on décrit le «signal» (stimulus à identifier ou souvenir à reconnaître) comme une distribution statistique sur un ensemble de valeurs d’abscisse, et le «bruit» (autres stimulations ou autres souvenirs) de la même façon; ce sont les relations entre ces distribution, et les critères de décision adoptés par le sujet, qui gouvernent la détection. 2, record 3, French, - brouill%C3%A9%20par%20le%20bruit

[A chirp is a] typical phase coding or modulation applied to the range pulse of an imaging radar designed to achieve a large time-bandwidth product. The resulting phase is quadratic in time, which has a linear derivative. Such coding is often called linear frequency modulation, or linear fm. 2, record 5, English, - linear%20frequency%20modulation

La modulation introduite sur le signal émis revêt deux fonctions distinctes visant à une meilleure interprétation du signal reçu. L'introduction d’un codage peut permettre de distinguer le signal acquis du bruit de fond ou d’émissions parasites(systèmes de brouillage). Une modulation linéaire en fréquence crée une sorte de variation Doppler artificielle, qui permet d’accroître la résolution en distance, grâce à un traitement approprié. 3, record 5, French, - modulation%20lin%C3%A9aire%20en%20fr%C3%A9quence
