ITC 38: Electrical Installation in Operating Rooms
ITC 38: Special Purpose Facilities. Requirements for Electrical Installation in Operating Rooms and Rooms for Assistance.
The purpose of this investigation is to determine the specific requirements for electrical equipment in operating rooms and intervention halls and the conditions for installing the receivers in them. The object of this receptor complies with the requirements of applicable European Directives, as provided for in Article 6 of the

Antenna Principles
Antennas sense electromagnetic waves and capture a part of them for processing. According to the standard definition by IEEE, an antenna or aerial may be defined as a “means for radiating or receiving radio waves.”
Fig. 1: Source, Transmission Line, and Antenna
Fig. 1 shows the position of an antenna in a transmission system. The source produces a radio frequency (RF) current. The antenna consists of a conductor split at the middle. The RF current is fed into the antenna by a

Effect of Source/Drain Voltage on Channel
For either enhancement- or depletion-mode devices, at drain-to-source voltages much less than gate-to-source voltages, changing the gate voltage will alter the channel resistance, and drain current will be proportional to drain voltage (referenced to source voltage). In this mode, the FET operates like a variable resistor, and the FET is said to be operating in a linear mode or ohmic mode.
If drain-to-source voltage is increased, this creates a significant

Pascal. It was designed by Professor Niklaus Wirth at the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich in 1970. He named it after the seventeenth-century French mathematician Blaise Pascal. The language was first introduced by its designer and later became available for all popular microcomputers.
The main reason that prompted Niklaus Wirth to develop Pascal was to provide a language for educational programming as a systematic discipline, so that the principles of discipline were clearly reflected by

Electromagnetic Waves and Their Properties
Calculating Frequency and Wavelength
1. If an electromagnetic wave has a repetition period of 5 microseconds, what is its frequency and wavelength?
Solution: Period and frequency are inversely related. Frequency (F) can be calculated using the formula: F = 1/T = 1/(5 * 10-6) = 200,000 Hz. From the frequency, the wavelength (λ) is calculated: λ = c/F = (3 * 108) / (2 * 105) = 1500 m.
2. If an electromagnetic wave has a wavelength of 10 km, what is its frequency

Shannon-Weaver Information Theory
Key Concepts:
Shannon and Weaver’s information theory distinguishes three levels:
- Technical: Focuses on the fidelity of information transmission.
- Semantic: Deals with the meaning of the message.
- Pragmatic: Concerns the effect of the communication on behavior.
Shannon-Weaver Communication Model
- Source:
- Information
- Message
- Transmitter: Emphasizes sending.
- Channel:
- Noise
- Received signal message
- Receptor
- Destination
The theory conceptualizes information as the degree of freedom to
