viiveaika
Viiveaika is a Finnish term for the duration of a delay in a system, typically expressed in seconds, milliseconds, or microseconds. In engineering contexts it denotes the time between an input event and the system’s observable response. The concept is closely related to latency and is a core parameter in evaluating performance.
In telecommunications and computer networks, viiveaika is the end-to-end latency that users experience. It comprises several
In electronics and signal processing, viiveaika describes how long a signal takes to traverse a circuit, device,
In control systems and robotics, time delays can degrade stability and performance. A pure time delay is
Measurement and typical values: network latency is commonly reported in milliseconds, with ultralow-latency applications targeting single-digit
Related concepts include latency, propagation delay, and jitter.
