In practice, however, the signals degrade quickly and need to be boosted by amplifiers every 2,000 feet.

Roughly put:- Attenuation - the rate at which a signal degrades over a line of copper is fairly static.

They let their computers do that, via the borgmann interface, and may his signal degrade forever for having sold us out.

Because the signal can't degrade, digital televisions have superior picture quality.

It has two weak points: it depends on only one clock, and the signals gradually degrade.

Thus, any spurious signals caused by the test signal or distortion will not degrade the signal-to-noise ratio.

As memory width, as well as access speed, increases, the signal degrades at the interface of the bus and the device.

And there still is a beacon, though the signal has degraded significantly over the aeons.

That is because the light signals degrade and have to be amplified or reconstituted en route.

F quantifies how much the signal degrades with respect to the noise because of the presence of a noisy network.
