SNR Nedir?
SNR (Signal-to-Noise Ratio), bir sinyalin gücünün, aynı sinyaldeki gürültüye (noise) oranıdır. Bu oran, genellikle desibel (dB) cinsinden ifade edilir ve bir sistemin veya cihazın sinyal kalitesini belirlemekte kullanılır. SNR'nin yüksek olması, sinyalin gürültüye göre daha güçlü olduğunu ve dolayısıyla daha net ve güvenilir bir sinyal elde edildiğini gösterir. Düşük SNR ise gürültünün sinyalin kalitesini bozduğu anlamına gelir.
