  Chirp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A chirp is a signal in which the frequency increases ('up-chirp') or decreases ('down-chirp') with time.
Chirps have been heavily used in radar applications and as a result advanced sources for transmission and matched filters for reception of linear chirps are available[1].
The projective chirp is ideally suited to image processing, and forms the basis for the projective chirplet transform.

 What is CHIRP
CHIRP complements the CAA Mandatory Occurrence Reporting system and other formal reporting systems operated by many UK organisations, by providing a means by which individuals are able to raise issues of concern without being identified to their peer group, management, or the Regulatory Authority.
CHIRP was formed in 1982 as a result of a joint initiative between the Chief Scientific Officer Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), the Chief Medical Officer CAA and the Commandant Royal Air Force Institute of Aviation Medicine (IAM).
CHIRP was established in its present form, as a registered charitable company, limited by guarantee, on 1 November 1996.

The numerical data files of ship navigation and bottom-towed chirp profiles of the two cruises of the Cape Hatteras in this area are in two directories, navdata, and segydata, respectively.
The Datasonics Inc. SIS 7000 deep-towed sidescan sonar and chirp profiling unit was developed in 1990 in conjunction with the USGS.
On cruise 92023, 58 km of deep-towed chirp data were recorded on 4 lines and broken into a total of 8 files.

 Project Proposal for EE359 - Wireless Communications
Chirps have been heavily used in radar applications and as a result advanced sources for transmission and matched filters for reception of linear chirps are available.
Generally, the chirp rates are chosen such that the transmitted signal occupies a bandwidth well in excess of the minimum bandwidth necessary, which is approximately the inverse of the bit period.
In fact, the chirp signals may be somewhat loosely considered as the continuous-time equivalent of the discrete-time spreading codes used in conventional spread spectrum techniques like direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS).

Pulse compression using the chirp technique has proven to be a powerful method for measuring the channel response since it avoids transmitter peak power limitations and offers excellent interference rejection capabilities.
A more detailed description of the chirp sounder theory and implementation is presented in a number of papers available in the publications tab.
In the transmitter, the locally generated RF chirp signal is simply amplified and transmitted across the desired channel as shown in figure 2.

 G3PLX Chirp Project   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Peter's design uses the special chirped filter previously described, with properties not attainable with a conventional filter, and so is able to detect the transmissions with 0.66 ms time resolution, and with very narrow bandwidth that provides high sensitivity.
Knowing the chirp rate of the transmission, and what frequency the chirp is being received on, one can work out the nominal "chirp time" at which the received signal started at zero - by simply counting back at 100 kHz/second.
Chirp times are typically quoted in the form period:chirp time, where the period is in seconds, and the chirp time is the zero frequency extrapolated time of the first chirp transmitted each hour.

 Measuring Spatial Chirp and Pulse-Front Tilt in Ultrashort Pulses Using Single-Shot FROG
Spatial-chirp (in which the average wavelength of the pulse varies spatially across the beam) and pulse-front tilt (in which the pulse intensity fronts are not perpendicular to the propagation vector) are common spatio-temporal distortions in ultrashort pulses.
Because the single-shot SHG FROG trace and spatio-spectral diagnostics for spatial chirp both involve plots of intensity vs. frequency and position, the FROG-trace tilt is naturally related to the spatial chirp.
To vary the spatial chirp of a pulse, we placed mirrors between the last two prisms of a pulse compressor, deflecting the pulse to two additional mirrors mounted on a translation stage.

 RCS-5A Chirp Sounder Receiver
In the beginning the only way for a hobbyist to receive chirps was by using their ears and a short wave receiver tuned to a fixed frequency or manually tuning the receiver or use a commercial chirp receiver like the RCS-5().
The average chirp power received from a 100 W chirp transmitter was much greater than the pulse power from a 100 kW pulse transmitter, and chirp is coherent.
Chirp is not a magic mode and for some paths you can only hear anything at certain times of the day/night.

When a semiconductor laser is directly modulated, it generates two main types of chirp: Transient chirp, which occurs at bit transitions and hastens pulse spreading in fibers with positive dispersion, and adiabatic chirp, which makes the 1 bits blue-shifted relative to the 0 bits.

 Chirp-managed laser increases 10G reach (August 2005) - News & Analysis - fibers.org
What we've realized is that hidden in there, there's also adiabatic chirp, which follows the optical power.
Let's say with a 1-0-1 bit sequence, the ones are going to have higher amplitude; they'll be blue-shifted relative to the zeroes, which have lower amplitudes - they'll be red-shifted.
And the magnitude of that shift is called the 'adiabatic chirp.' The laser, at least at adiabatic chirp, kind of follows the bit sequence."

Since you can create various chirp waveforms by adjusting the rate at which the frequency increases (the slope), we decided to take a closer look in order to see how the slope of our chirp affects its properties.
The Chirp waveform is very important to certain radar applications and has many benefits.
However, as we increase the slope of our chirp, it is very apparent that the chirp waveform does a very good job of detecting the range resolution, but not as good a job of detecting frequency resolution.

 Naked mole-rats share food with a chirp and a wave
As soon as a mole-rat scout located the biologists' stash of sweet potato bits, it would pick up one piece in its mouth and scurry directly back to the nest chamber, making a distinctive "chirp" call along the way.
Once in the nest, the biologists observed, the scout would wave the food aloft in its mouth for all to smell.
However, the Cornell study did earn naked mole-rats one mark of distinction: Their newly identified recruitment chirp, issued by the food-bearing scouts on the way to the nest, brings to 18 the total number of different vocalizations.
