  2. Standing wave ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standing_wave_ratio

    In radio engineering and telecommunications, standing wave ratio (SWR) is a measure of impedance matching of loads to the characteristic impedance of a transmission line or waveguide. Impedance mismatches result in standing waves along the transmission line, and SWR is defined as the ratio of the partial standing wave 's amplitude at an ...

  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. 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.

  5. List of RF connector types - Wikipedia

    The male contact was designed to be the same size as the cable conductor so that it could be used as the mating pin for optimized VSWR. Common applications included Mil-Aero, telecommunications, RFID, antennas, test and measurement and radar systems. SMZ connector – System 43 (BT43 and High Density HD43) for use in DDF. This is a 75 ohm ...

  6. Horn antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horn_antenna

    Pyramidal horn antennas for a variety of frequencies. They have flanges at the top to attach to standard waveguides. A horn antenna is used to transmit radio waves from a waveguide (a metal pipe used to carry radio waves) out into space, or collect radio waves into a waveguide for reception.

  7. TETRA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TETRA

    The resulting ratio of peak to mean (RMS) power is 3.65 dB. If non-linear (or not-linear enough) amplifiers are used, the sidebands re-appear and cause interference on adjacent channels. Commonly used techniques for achieving the necessary linearity include Cartesian loops, and adaptive predistortion.

  8. List of wireless network technologies - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_wireless_network...

    1G or (1-G) refers to the first generation of cellular network technology. These are the analog telecommunication standards that were introduced in 1979 and the early to mid-1980s and continued until being replaced by 2G digital telecommunications. The main difference between these two mobile telephone generations is that in 1G systems the ...

  9. Channel-associated signaling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Channel-associated_signaling

    Channel-associated signaling (CAS), also known as per-trunk signaling (PTS), is a form of digital communication signaling.As with most telecommunication signaling methods, it uses routing information to direct the payload of voice or data to its destination.
