continuous-time signal processing
[kən-ˈti-nyə-wəs ˈtaɪm ˈsɪɡ-nəl ˈprɑ-ˌses-ɪŋ]
noun
processamento de sinais em tempo contínuo
1. A branch of signal processing that deals with signals that vary continuously over time, as opposed to discrete-time signals that are sampled at specific intervals
Continuous-time signal processing is essential for analyzing analog signals in real-world applications such as audio and telecommunications.
O processamento de sinais em tempo contínuo é essencial para analisar sinais analógicos em aplicações do mundo real, como áudio e telecomunicações.
2. The mathematical and computational techniques used to filter, transform, analyze, and manipulate signals that are defined for all values of time within a given range
Engineers use continuous-time signal processing to design analog filters for reducing noise in sensor measurements.
Engenheiros usam processamento de sinais em tempo contínuo para projetar filtros analógicos que reduzem ruído em medições de sensores.
This is a technical term primarily used in academic and professional engineering contexts in both Brazil and Portugal. It is fundamental in electrical engineering, telecommunications, and signal processing fields. The distinction between continuous-time and discrete-time processing is a cornerstone concept taught in engineering programs worldwide, with particular emphasis in countries with strong telecommunications industries like Brazil.
