korkeakykyinen

Korkeakykyinen is a Finnish term that translates to "high-frequency" in English. It refers to the range of frequencies that are above the typical range of human hearing, which is generally considered to be between 20 Hz and 20,000 Hz. High-frequency sounds are those that have a frequency above 20,000 Hz. These sounds are not audible to humans but can be detected by certain animals, such as dogs, bats, and some birds, which have a higher frequency range.

In the context of technology and engineering, korkeakykyinen can refer to high-frequency signals used in various applications, such as telecommunications, radar systems, and medical imaging. For example, ultrasound imaging uses high-frequency sound waves to create images of internal body structures. Similarly, high-frequency radio waves are used in wireless communication systems to transmit data over short distances.

The study of high-frequency sounds and their applications is an active area of research in fields such as acoustics, bioacoustics, and signal processing. Researchers are continually exploring new ways to harness the unique properties of high-frequency signals for various purposes, from improving communication technologies to developing new medical diagnostic tools.
