• AE rms, n- the rectified, time averaged AE signal, measured on a linear<br />

scale and reported in volts.<br />

• AE signal duration- the time between AE signal start and AE signal end.<br />

• AE signal end- the recognized termination of an AE signal, usually defined<br />

as the last crossing of the threshold by that signal.<br />

• AE signal generator- a device which can repeatedly induce a specified<br />

transient signal into an AE instrument.<br />

• AE signal rise time- the time between AE signal start and the peak<br />

amplitude of that AE signal.<br />

• AE signal start- the beginning of an AE signal as recognized by the system<br />

processor, usually defined by an amplitude excursion 远 足 / 旅 途 / 前 进<br />

exceeding threshold.<br />
