  2. Reflections of signals on conducting lines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflections_of_signals_on...

    A time-domain reflectometer; an instrument used to locate the position of faults on lines from the time taken for a reflected wave to return from the discontinuity.. A signal travelling along an electrical transmission line will be partly, or wholly, reflected back in the opposite direction when the travelling signal encounters a discontinuity in the characteristic impedance of the line, or if ...

  3. Haze (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haze_(optics)

    Reflection Haze is an optical phenomenon usually associated with high gloss surfaces, it is a common surface problem that can affect appearance quality. The reflection from an ideal high gloss surface should be clear and radiant, however, due to scattering at imperfections in the surface caused by microscopic structures or textures (≈ 0.01 mm wavelength) the reflection can appear milky or ...

  4. Mismatch loss - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mismatch_loss

    Mismatch loss in transmission line theory is the amount of power expressed in decibels that will not be available on the output due to impedance mismatches and signal reflections. A transmission line that is properly terminated, that is, terminated with the same impedance as that of the characteristic impedance of the transmission line, will ...

  5. Cross-site scripting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_scripting

    As the JavaScript code was also processing user input and rendering it in the web page content, a new sub-class of reflected XSS attacks started to appear that was called DOM-based cross-site scripting. In a DOM-based XSS attack, the malicious data does not touch the web server.

  6. Multipath propagation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multipath_propagation

    In radio communication, multipath is the propagation phenomenon that results in radio signals reaching the receiving antenna by two or more paths. Causes of multipath include atmospheric ducting, ionospheric reflection and refraction, and reflection from water bodies and terrestrial objects such as mountains and buildings.

  7. Non-synchronous transmission - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-synchronous_transmission

    The clutch brake not only slows or stops the idle gear axis but can also prevent shifting into gear until the clutch pedal is released a few centimetres (or inches) off the floor. In order to shift into gear, the clutch must be halfway off the floor, otherwise, the clutch brake will prevent the transmission from being shifted into or out of gear.

  8. Gloss (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gloss_(optics)

    Defined as the ratio of the specularly reflected light to that diffusely reflected normal to the surface; Absence of bloom – the perceived cloudiness in reflections near the specular direction; Defined as a measure of the absence of haze or a milky appearance adjacent to the specularly reflected light: haze is the inverse of absence-of-bloom

  9. Optical coating - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_coating

    The thicknesses of the layers are generally quarter-wave (then they yield to the broadest high reflection band in comparison to the non-quarter-wave systems composed from the same materials), this time designed such that reflected beams constructively interfere with one another to maximize reflection and minimize transmission. The best of these ...
