The phrase "a total attenuation" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing a complete reduction or weakening of something, often in scientific or technical discussions.
Example: "The experiment resulted in a total attenuation of the signal, rendering it unusable for further analysis."
Alternatives: "complete reduction" or "full weakening".
By further applying a frequency hopping between 444 and 888 kHz, we further spread the emitted power whose maximum level is reduced by a factor of two, i.e., a total attenuation of 23 dB of the emitted peak power level is obtained.
Further factoring in losses from the optical fibre of (-15.5~mbox{dB}) and fibre blackening from radiation of (-1.7~mbox{dB}), the link budget achieves a total attenuation of (-52.2~mbox{dB}) in the worst case, towards the end of mission lifetime.
We extract two parameters from the OCT measurement: the backscattering amplitude, A, (reflectance) and the total attenuation coefficient, μ t.
A is the total attenuation.
Numerical results show that the attenuation contribution from the homogeneous propagation (of any of the three faster waves) is only a little in the total attenuation of any of these attenuated waves.
It has also been shown that the correlation diffusion equation can be used to model G 1 in a turbid media [ 20]: ∇ 2 G 1 − μ e f f G 1 = q (7)In these equations, q is the source, µ tr = (µ a + µ s') the transport or total attenuation coefficient, µ a the absorption coefficient, µ s', the reduced scattering coefficient, µ a,dyn is the dynamic absorption term, and µ eff = [3 µ a,dynµ tr]1/2.
Assuming an isotropic, homogeneous medium, the total attenuation coefficient can be further decomposed as a sum of two quantities and, the absorption and scattering coefficients of the medium, respectively: (2).
The total attenuation over a link can be modelled as the sum of the attenuations over the link segments [6].
Although researchers considered vegetation as a soft obstacle in terms of total attenuation, actual measurements show that trees or shrubs could induce important attenuations.
From these results, in biomedical measurement, it is considered that there is a trade-off between imaging contrast and total attenuation coefficient, which leads to the greatest possible penetration depth.
This reveals that ultrasonic attenuation due to phonon phonon interaction along shear wave is governing factor for total attenuation and total attenuation is a governing factor for thermal conductivity and thermal energy density.
