squarewavenounAlternative form of square wave. [(calculus, engineering, signal processing) A function or waveform that alternates regularly and instantaneously between two levels.]
triangle wavenoun(mathematics, engineering) A function or waveform that alternately ramps linearly upwards and then downwards.
sawtooth wavenoun(mathematics, engineering) A function or waveform that repeatedly ramps upwards (usually linearly) and then sharply drops.
waveformnoun(physics, engineering) The shape of a physical wave, such as sound, electric current or electromagnetic radiation, or its representation obtained by plotting a characteristic of the phenomenon (such as voltage) versus another variable, often time.
sequencynounA pattern or order of sequential items in a series.
haar waveletnounA sequence of rescaled "square-shaped" functions which together form a wavelet family or basis.
sinusoidnoun(mathematics) A curve having the shape of a sine wave.
noiseletnoun(signal processing) Any of a family of functions related to wavelets, analogous to the way that the Fourier basis is related to a time domain signal.
scalogramnoun(signal processing) A visual representation of a wavelet transform, having axes for time, scale, and coefficient value, analogous to a spectrogram

periodic functionnoun(mathematics) Any function whose value repeats after the regular addition of a period to its independent variable; i.e., a function ƒ such that, for some positive constant p, ƒ(x + p) = ƒ(x) for all x.
frameletnoun(mathematics) A wavelet frame.
hann functionnoun(signal processing) A discrete window function, w(n)=1/2;(1- cos ((2πn)/(N-1))), typically used to select a subset of a series of samples in order to perform a Fourier transform or other calculation.
periodicitynounThe quality of being periodic; tendency to recur at regular intervals.
window functionnoun(databases) A function that performs a calculation using values from several rows, but does not group them into a single row.
alternationnounThe reciprocal succession of (normally two) things in time or place; the act of following and being followed by turns; alternate succession, performance, or occurrence
