    Life Orthogonality
AI Thread Summary
Orthogonality and orthonormality are essential concepts in various practical applications, particularly in telecommunications, such as cell phones and Wi-Fi, where they enhance signal processing. These principles ensure independence across basis vectors, allowing for efficient data transmission and error reduction. In engineering and physics, they facilitate the analysis of complex systems by simplifying calculations and improving clarity. The abstract nature of these concepts in academia translates into significant real-world benefits across multiple industries. Understanding their applications can lead to advancements in technology and improved communication systems.

I want to to know what's the usage of this theory in our life or is there any important application depend on that theory

I study it in physics of engineering but i want to to know what's the useful for it?

Welcome to PhysicsForums!

If you've ever used a cell phone, wi-fi, or have cable TV, you've been the ditrect beneficiary of orthogonality / orthonormality. While the treatment you receive in linear algebra or even higher physics courses may seem a little abstract, the concept--independence across basis vectors / dimensions--is applied quite extensively in many fields.
 

Thread 'Underwater piezoelectric sensor array receive sensitivity'

Hi all I have some confusion about piezoelectrical sensors combination. If i have three acoustic piezoelectrical sensors (with same receive sensitivity in dB ref V/1uPa) placed at specific distance, these sensors receive acoustic signal from a sound source placed at far field distance (Plane Wave) and from broadside. I receive output of these sensors through individual preamplifiers, add them through hardware like summer circuit adder or in software after digitization and in this way got an...

Thread 'Following up on the recent thread about Earth Resistance measurements'

I have recently moved into a new (rather ancient) house and had a few trips of my Residual Current breaker. I dug out my old Socket tester which tell me the three pins are correct. But then the Red warning light tells me my socket(s) fail the loop test. I never had this before but my last house had an overhead supply with no Earth from the company. The tester said "get this checked" and the man said the (high but not ridiculous) earth resistance was acceptable. I stuck a new copper earth...

Thread 'Question about bonding ground and neutral'

I am not an electrical engineering student, but a lowly apprentice electrician. I learn both on the job and also take classes for my apprenticeship. I recently wired my first transformer and I understand that the neutral and ground are bonded together in the transformer or in the service. What I don't understand is, if the neutral is a current carrying conductor, which is then bonded to the ground conductor, why does current only flow back to its source and not on the ground path...
