ENF
Definition
Electrical-network-frequency variation that may be captured in a recording. Analysis depends on recoverable signal and appropriate reference data. An ENF observation is not automatically a unique date, place or proof of no editing.
- Context
- Recording analysis
For example, a recoverable network-related variation may be compared with appropriate records while recording artefacts and reference coverage are assessed.
Missing or contaminated signal can limit the method.
