  • Term
    Definition
  • An enclosure designed to block electromagnetic waves, formed by using conductive material, such as metal, or by a mesh of such material.
  • US limits and methods of measurement of radio disturbance, measuring radio waves accidentally emitted from devices not specifically designed to emit radio waves ("unintentional"), both directly ("radiated") and indirectly ("conducted")
  • An independent agency of the United States government, created by Congressional statute (see 47 U.S.C. § 151 and 47 U.S.C. § 154), and with the majority of its commissioners appointed by the current President. The FCC works towards six goals in the areas of broadband, competition, the(...)

  • Passive electric component used to suppress high frequency noise in electronic circuits.
  • Regions of the electromagnetic field around an object, such as a transmitting antenna, or as a result of radiation scattering off an object.
  • The magnitude of the received electromagnetic field which will excite a receiving antenna and thereby induce a voltage at a specific frequency in order to provide an input signal to a radio receiver. Field strength meters are used for such applications as cellular, broadcasting, wi-fi and a(...)
  • An algorithm or device for removing part(s) of a signal.
  • A beryllium copper electrical gasket used to bond metal panel members on doors, sills, or covers.
  • Computational tool for performing an engineering analysis using mesh generation techniques to breakdown complex problems into small elements.
  • Computational tool for performing an engineering analysis using mesh generation techniques to breakdown complex problems into small elements.
  • A technique for finding approximate solutions to boundary value problems for differential equations.
  • A technique for finding approximate solutions to boundary value problems for differential equations.
  • Specifies how much the amplifier's gain can vary over the specified frequency range. Variations in the flatness of the amplifier's gain can cause distortion of signals passing through the amplifier.
  • Encoding of information in a carrier wave by varying the instantaneous frequency of the wave.
  • Encoding of information in a carrier wave by varying the instantaneous frequency of the wave.
