Significant instant

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In telecommunications, a significant instant is the instant of change from one significant condition to another within a discretely-timed signal[1]

A signal in which the time interval between two successive significant instants is constant is called an isochronous signal. This time interval is called the unit interval.
