For lower noise intensities, the signal does not cause the device to cross threshold, so little signal is passed through it.

For large noise intensities, the output is dominated by the noise, also leading to a low signal-to-noise ratio.

Frequent turns in the streets (see drawing of approved development plan) result in speed reduction which lowers noise intensity.

For moderate intensities, the noise allows the signal to reach threshold, but the noise intensity is not so large as to swamp it.

Stochastic resonance occurs when these conditions combine in such a way that a certain average noise intensity results in maximized information transfer.

Thus, a plot of signal-to-noise ratio as a function of noise intensity shows a ' ' shape.

These improvements helped reduce noise intensity by 40% compared to the 2.4 L engine and change the noise signature into a higher frequency above 2,000 Hz.

More technically, SR occurs if the signal-to-noise ratio of a nonlinear system or device increases for moderate values of noise intensity.

Calibrating the appropriate signal and noise intensity thresholds for a given microarray hybridization requires the analysis of a set of positive and negative reference genes.

When and the noise intensity matrices , do not depend on and when tends to infinity the LQG controller becomes a time-invariant dynamic system.

The power spectra from the averaged spike data for three different noise intensities all showed a clear peak at the 55.2 Hz component with different average levels of broadband noise.

In workplaces where employees move about in different areas or where the noise intensity tends to fluctuate over time, noise exposure is generally more accurately estimated by the personal monitoring approach.

In applied probability, a dynamic contagion process is a point process with stochastic intensity that generalises the Hawkes process and Cox process with exponentially decaying shot noise intensity.

A power spectrum analysis of the signals yielded maximum SNR for a noise intensity equal to 25 times the signal stimulus resulting in a maximum increase of 600% in SNR.

In the case of surface transportation noise, other methods of reducing the source noise intensity include encouraging the use of hybrid and electric vehicles, improving automobile aerodynamics and tire design, and choosing low-noise paving material.
