Selectivity

Selectivity logo #21000[electronic] Selectivity is a measure of the performance of a radio receiver to respond only to the radio signal it is tuned to (such as a radio station) and reject other signals nearby in frequency, such as another broadcast on an adjacent channel. Selectivity is usually measured as a ratio in decibels (dBs), comparing the signal strength ...

selectivity

selectivity logo #20718The discrimination shown by a reagent in competitive attack on two or more substrates or on two or more positions in the same substrate. It is quantitatively expressed by ratios of rate constants of the competing reactions, or by the decadic logarithms of such ratios.

Selectivity

Selectivity logo #21217In radio terms, selectivity is the ability of a radio to reject signals on frequencies adjacent to the desired station. It is usually expressed as a bandwidth measured at 6 dB rejection points ('6 dB down' or '-6 dB'). For example, a selectivity specification of '6 kHz at -6 dB' means any signal outside the 6 kHz bandwidth will be reduced in streng...
