A method of receiving either amplitude- or phase-modulated signals in which method the carrier is separated from the sidebands, filtered and amplified, and then combined with the sidebands again at a higher level prior to demodulation. Synonym reconditioned carrier reception.
Industry:Telecommunications
A method of recording on magnetic tape, which method maintains continuous tape motion without the requirement to start and stop within the interrecord gap.
Industry:Telecommunications
A method of recording video information diagonally on a tape, used in home and professional video cassette recorders (VCRs. ) Note: High-speed rotating video heads scan these diagonal video tracks, giving an effective tape speed much higher than the actual tape speed, allowing more information to be recorded on a given length of magnetic tape.
Industry:Telecommunications
A method of retransmitting TTY traffic from one channel to another, in which messages arriving on an incoming channel are recorded in the form of perforated tape, this tape then being either fed directly and automatically into an outgoing channel, or manually transferred to an automatic transmitter for transmission on an outgoing channel.
Industry:Telecommunications
A method of routing developed to use asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) hardware to route packets through networks more rapidly.
Industry:Telecommunications
A method of routing traffic through a switching center, from local users or from other switching centers, whereby a connection is established between the calling and called stations until the connection is released by the called or calling station. 2. A process that, on demand, connects two or more data terminal equipments (DTEs) and permits the exclusive use of a data circuit between them until the connection is released.
Industry:Telecommunications
A method of signaling from a terminal or subscriber loop to a switch, in which method one side of a cable pair is temporarily grounded.
Industry:Telecommunications
A method of teletypewriter operation in which marking signals are formed by current pulses of one polarity, either positive or negative, and spacing signals are formed by reducing the current to zero or nearly zero.
Industry:Telecommunications
A method of transmission or reception, or both, in which the effects of fading are minimized by the simultaneous use of two or more physically separated antennas, ideally separated by one or more wavelengths.
Industry:Telecommunications
A method of transmitting a telephone address over a direct-current path. The dc current is interrupted at the transmitting end in a defined pattern representing a particular digit in a telephone number. The number of interruptions in the dc current specifies the address digit.
