  2. Mobile Allocation Index Offset - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_Allocation_Index_Offset

    For mobile phone technology, a mobile allocation index offset (MAIO) refers a time delay separating traffic channels.When a GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) mobile phone is served by a cell that is hopping over a set of frequencies, the separate traffic channels hop over the allocated frequencies according to a hopping sequence number (HSN).

  3. Frequency-hopping spread spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency-hopping_spread...

    The frequency band is divided into smaller sub-bands. Signals rapidly change ("hop") their carrier frequencies among the center frequencies of these sub-bands in a determined order. Interference at a specific frequency will affect the signal only during a short interval. [1] FHSS offers four main advantages over a fixed-frequency transmission:

    Configuration Description [4]; AN/VRC-87: Vehicular 5-watt short-range AN/MRC-145: Vehicular 50-watt radio system with two RT-1523s and a HMMWV assigned to the system

  5. Amateur radio call signs - Wikipedia

    The jurisdiction then assigns a single digit (a numeral to separate prefix from suffix) as well as a suffix of from one to four characters (the last being a letter) and appends them in that order to their assigned prefixes. The resulting call sign must uniquely identify a ham radio operator within that jurisdiction.

  6. Impedance matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impedance_matching

    For example, in order to match an inductive load into a real impedance, a capacitor needs to be used. If the load impedance becomes capacitive, the matching element must be replaced by an inductor. In many cases, there is a need to use the same circuit to match a broad range of load impedance and thus simplify the circuit design.

  7. Wireless ad hoc network - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_ad_hoc_network

    A wireless ad hoc network [1] (WANET) or mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is a decentralized type of wireless network.The network is ad hoc because it does not rely on a pre-existing infrastructure, such as routers or wireless access points.

  8. Hop (telecommunications) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hop_(telecommunications)

    In telecommunications, a hop is a portion of a signal's journey from source to receiver. Examples include: Examples include: The excursion of a radio wave from the Earth to the ionosphere and back to the Earth.

  9. Near vertical incidence skywave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Near_Vertical_Incidence...

    While the groundwave (blue) cannot propagate, the refracted skywaves (red) achieve HF coverage within the common first hop (~500 km or 310 miles). The most reliable frequencies for NVIS communications are between 1.8 MHz and 8 MHz. Above 8 MHz, the probability of success begins to decrease, dropping to near zero at 30 MHz.
