In telecommunications , insertion loss is the loss of Signalling telecommunication signal power physics power resulting from the insertion of a device in a transmission line or optical fiber and is usually expressed in decibel s dB . If the power transmitted to the load before insertion is P sub T sub and the power received by the load after insertion is P sub R sub , then the insertion loss in dB is given by, math 10 log 10 P mathrm T over P mathrm R math Electronic filters Insertion loss is a figure of merit for an electronic filter and this data is generally specified with a filter. Insertion loss is defined as a ratio of the signal level in a test configuration without the filter installed V sub 1 sub to the signal level with the filter installed V sub 2 sub . This ratio is described in decibel dB by the following equation math mbox Insertion loss dB 10 log 10 left V 1 right 2 over left V 2 right 2 20 log 10 left V 1 right over left V 2 right math Link with Scattering parameters In case the two measurement ports use the same reference impedance, the insertion loss math IL math is defined as ref Pozar, David M.

Weik year 1996 publisher Springer isbn 0412083914 ref The three basic types of gap loss are angular misalignment loss, lateral offset loss, and longitudinal displacement loss. The losses tend to be proportional to the ratio of the core radius to the size of the gap or displacement.

Definition Specifically, gap loss happens when the signal from one end of a piece of cable is transferred to another, but there is a space, breakage, or gap between them. Since fiber optics transmit data via light the light can cross this gap, but spreads out and is weakened and diffused when it does so. The light that crosses the gap and enters the next section of cable is broken up. Some of it reflects off, and some will hit the covering of the cable and not enter into the cable. If the gap is small, the gap loss will be small, but if the gap is very large, it may totally corrupt the signal. ref name interest cite book ... coauthors Baksheesh Ghuman year 2001 publisher Sams Publishing isbn 067232248X ref Gap loss can be caused ... be a loss of signal. ref name mneh cite book title Technician s Guide to Fiber Optics author Donald ... of gap loss As a result of signal strength and cohesion being lost due to the scattering of the light , a fiber optic signal suffering from gap loss is degraded in both quality and throughput.

It occurs when an operation on two numbers increases relative error substantially more than it increases absolute error , for example in subtracting two large and nearly equal numbers. The effect is that the number of significant digit accurate significant digits in the result is reduced unacceptably. Ways to avoid this effect are studied in numerical analysis . In floating point arithmetic, only a limited number of digits of the number are maintained floating point numbers can only approximate most real numbers. Example For the purposes of this example, if the reader is not familiar with binary numbers, bits can be considered as decimal digits. Consider the real binary number 1.001111111 A floating point representation of this number on a machine that keeps 4 floating point bits would be 1.001, which is fairly close the difference is very small in comparison with either of the two numbers.

Contract law Risk of loss is a term used in the law of contract s to determine which party should bear the burden of risk for damage occurring to goods after the sale has been completed, but before delivery has occurred.

Under the Uniform Commercial Code UCC , there are four risk of loss rules, in order of application Agreement the agreement of the parties controls Breach the breaching party is liable for any uninsured loss even though breach is unrelated to the problem. Hence, if the breach is the time of delivery, and the goods show up broken, then the breaching rule applies risk of loss on the seller. Delivery by common carrier other than by seller. Risk of loss shifts from seller to buyer at the time that seller completes its delivery obligations If it is a destination contract FOB shipping FOB buyer s city , then risk of loss is on the seller. If it is a delivery contract standard, or FOB seller s city , then the risk of loss is on the buyer. If the seller is a merchant, then the risk of loss shifts to the buyer upon buyer s receipt of the goods. If the buyer never takes possession, then the seller still has the risk of loss. ref Uniform Commercial Code 2 509 3 ref In bankruptcy law , the risk of loss rule under a contract can be abrogated by a Collateral finance secured interest . ref In re H.S.A., II, Inc.
