SNR AND ITS RELATIONSHIP TO
QUALITY MEASUREMENT
PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS
MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES
SNR can be measured using specialized
equipment that separates the signal and noise
components.
For real-time applications, SNR is often
monitored continuously to ensure quality
control.
IMPROVING SNR
Various techniques are used to improve SNR, such
as filtering, shielding, and using higher quality
components.
In wireless communications, increasing the
transmit power, using directional antennas, and
optimizing the modulation schemes can enhance
SNR.
CHALLENGES
In some environments, such as those with high
electromagnetic interference, maintaining a
high SNR can be challenging.
The trade-off between SNR and other
parameters, like power consumption and
bandwidth, must be carefully managed.
