Dhansak is also always had on the fourth day after the death of a near one. There is no meat
Pulse compression Pulse compression Pulse compression is a signal processing technique commonly used by radar, sonar and echography to increase the range resolution as well as the signal to noise ratio. This is achieved by modulating the transmitted pulse and then correlating the received signal with the transmitted pulse. The simplest signal a pulse radar can transmit is a sinusoidal-amplitude pulse, formula_1 and carrier frequency, formula_2, truncated by a rectangular function of width, formula_3. The pulse is transmitted periodically, but that is not the main topic of this article; we will consider only a single pulse, formula_4. If we assume the pulse
