While there are no direct synonyms for "delta wave," it is sometimes referred to as a slow wave due to its low frequency. Other terms that may be used in discussing delta waves include delta activity, delta state, or delta rhythm. Additionally, some may simply refer to them as deep sleep waves or slow brain waves. Understanding the terminology surrounding delta waves can be helpful in studying brain activity during different phases of sleep and consciousness.
