  2. Standing wave ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_wave_ratio

    Voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR) (pronounced "vizwar" [1] [2]) is the ratio of maximum to minimum voltage on a transmission line . For example, a VSWR of 1.2 means a peak voltage 1.2 times the minimum voltage along that line, if the line is at least one half wavelength long.

  3. SWR meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SWR_meter

    A standing wave ratio meter, SWR meter, ISWR meter (current "I" SWR), or VSWR meter (voltage SWR) measures the standing wave ratio (SWR) in a transmission line. [ a ] The meter indirectly measures the degree of mismatch between a transmission line and its load (usually an antenna ).

  4. Antenna (radio) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antenna_(radio)

    An example of a low-gain antenna is the whip antenna found on portable radios and cordless phones. Antenna gain should not be confused with amplifier gain , a separate parameter measuring the increase in signal power due to an amplifying device placed at the front-end of the system, such as a low-noise amplifier .

  5. Signal reflection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signal_reflection

    In telecommunications, signal reflection occurs when a signal is transmitted along a transmission medium, such as a copper cable or an optical fiber. Some of the signal power may be reflected back to its origin rather than being carried all the way along the cable to the far end.

  7. Remote radio head - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remote_Radio_Head

    RRHs can be installed in a low-profile arrangement along a rooftop, or can involve a much higher tower arrangement. When installed at the highest point on a structure (whether a building or a dedicated cell tower), they will be more vulnerable to receiving a direct lightning strike and higher induced lightning levels, compared with those installed in a lower profile manner below the upper ...

  8. Radio resource management - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_Resource_Management

    Radio resource management (RRM) is the system level management of co-channel interference, radio resources, and other radio transmission characteristics in wireless communication systems, for example cellular networks, wireless local area networks, wireless sensor systems, and radio broadcasting networks.

  9. Channel-associated signaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel-associated_signaling

    For example, in the PSTN the use of out-of-band signaling within a fixed bandwidth reduces a 64 kbit/s DS0 to 56 kbit/s. Because of this, and the inherent security benefits of separating the control lines from the payload, telephone systems introduced since the 1960s rely more on common-channel signaling (CCS).
