waveform
Significado: The shape or pattern of a wave as represented graphically, showing how amplitude varies over time or distance.
Waveforms are central to electronics, acoustics, signal processing, and medical diagnostics. Common waveform types include sine, square, sawtooth, and triangular waves. An oscilloscope displays electrical waveforms, while audio editing software shows sound waveforms. In medicine, ECG waveforms reveal heart rhythms, and EEG waveforms indicate brain activity. The term has become increasingly familiar to the general public through music production software and podcast editing tools.
Ejemplos
- The oscilloscope displayed a clean sinusoidal waveform, confirming that the signal generator was functioning correctly. 示波器显示出干净的正弦波形,确认信号发生器工作正常。El osciloscopio mostró una forma de onda sinusoidal limpia, lo que confirmó que el generador de señales funcionaba correctamente.オシロスコープはきれいな正弦波形を表示し、信号発生器が正常に動作していることを確認した。오실로스코프는 깨끗한 정현파 파형을 표시하여 신호 발생기가 정상적으로 작동하고 있음을 확인해 주었다.
- Cardiologists analysed the ECG waveform and identified an irregular pattern consistent with atrial fibrillation. 心脏病专家分析了心电图波形,发现了与心房颤动一致的不规则模式。Los cardiólogos analizaron la forma de onda del ECG e identificaron un patrón irregular compatible con fibrilación auricular.循環器科医は心電図の波形を分析し、心房細動と一致する不規則なパターンを特定した。심장내과 의사는 심전도 파형을 분석하여 심방세동과 일치하는 불규칙한 패턴을 확인했다.
- The audio engineer examined the waveform on screen and noticed clipping in the louder passages of the recording. 音频工程师查看屏幕上的波形,注意到录音中较大声段落出现了削波现象。El ingeniero de audio examinó la forma de onda en pantalla y detectó recorte en los pasajes más fuertes de la grabación.音声エンジニアは画面上の波形を確認し、録音の音量が大きい箇所でクリッピングが発生していることに気づいた。음향 엔지니어는 화면의 파형을 확인하고 녹음의 음량이 큰 구간에서 클리핑이 발생한 것을 발견했다.
