The electronic package which receives the signals from the scanner, translates the signals into meaningful data and transmits the data to other devices
Piece of equipment which, normally in conjunction with a smart card, decodes the scrambled signal and allows the user access to the service In the case of digital reception, the decoder is integrated in the receiver - IRD
As part of a bar code reading system, the electronic package which receives the signals from the scanner, performs the algorithm to interpret the signals into meaningful data and provides the interface to other devices
A decoder is a device used to decode messages or signals sent in code, for example the television signals from a satellite. a piece of electronic equipment that receives a signal and changes it for another machine to use, for example to put pictures and sound onto your television
a multiple-input, multiple-output logic device that converts coded inputs into coded outputs, where the input and output codes are different A 3-to-8 decoder, for example, uses a three bit binary input to select one of eight output lines Also called a ``demultiplexer''
-interface device that allows you to connect one or more undecoded scanners or other devices (such as scales and credit card readers) to a computer or terminal Decoders are often called wedges because they frequently use a keyboard wedge interface to connect and communicate with a computer or terminal The decoder will convert the scanner output into ASCII characters and then pass this data to your computer
The term given to the device in a signal receiver that receives the scrambled signal and converts it into a quality audio or visual signal for listening or viewing
Electronic package that receives signals from a scanner, performs the algorithm to interpret the signals into meaningful data and interfaces to other devices
(n ) A facility that decompresses data that has been encoded or compressed by an encoder A decoder can be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of both See also cell encoding, data compression, entropy coding, H 261 encoding, hierarchical encoding, predictive encoding, run-length encoding
The electronic package which receives the signals from the scanning function, performs the algorithm to interpret the signals into meaningful data and provides the interface to other devices
A combinational circuit that uses the binary input to select or activate one of many output lines by placing a logical 1 on the line, thus funcitoning in the opposite manner of an encoder
The Radar Decoder correlates the received signal with the code used at transmission, generating the equivalent pulse-radar signal (digital) This process greatly reduces the output data rate over directly sampling with the Radar Interface, but requires that the ephemeris be very well known, so that the bins don't smear into one another Decoding is an irreversible process, because phase information is lost, and, in order to actually reduce the data rate, you need to only keep part of the range information
The decoder section of a radio essentially removes the carrier wave from the modulated signal, leaving only the audio wave which is then amplified In TVs there are two separate decoders - one for the picture and one for the sound
