Time Domain

Time domain is the analysis of mathematical functions, physical signals or time series of economic or environmental data, with respect to time. In the time domain, the signal or function's value is known for all real numbers, for the case of continuous time, or at various separate instants in the case of discrete time. An oscilloscope is a tool commonly used to visualize real-world signals in the time domain. A time-domain graph shows how a signal changes with time, whereas a frequency-domain graph shows how much of the signal lies within each given frequency band over a range of frequencies.

Famous quotes containing the words time and/or domain:

    The vines of her arms
    didn’t cling to the ends of his clothes,
    or did she plant herself in the doorway,
    hurl herself at his feet,
    or utter the word “Stay!”
    But as that fool began to go
    at the time when it was dark with swarming clouds,
    the slim girl blocked her lover’s way
    with only a rising river
    made with her flood of tears.
    Amaru (c. seventh century A.D.)

    In the domain of art there is no light without heat.
    Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
