Quantum Mechanics Dictionary

A quantum mechanics concept defining a model element, mathematical object, or experimental method used to predict measurable outcomes. It applies when required assumptions and definitions are specified and yields computable probabilities and expectation values. It does not ensure correctness without validation of approximations, numerical stability, and consistency of units and conventions.

Information & Communication Dictionary

A transmitter and receiver signal‑processing technique that designs symbol‑time waveforms (pulses) and matched filters so that the transmitted signal meets spectral constraints (limited occupied bandwidth) and reduces or eliminates intersymbol interference (ISI) at the sampling instants.
