Pertaining to a device or a mode of operation capable of receiving messages, but not of transmitting messages.
Industry:Telecommunications
Pertaining to a device that allows a user to interact with a computer system by touching an area on the surface of the device with a finger, pencil, or other object; for example, a touch-sensitive keypad or screen.

Industry:Telecommunications
Pertaining to a device that can accept instructions that alter its basic functions.
Industry:Telecommunications
Pertaining to a fixed phase relationship between corresponding points on an electromagnetic wave. Note: A truly coherent wave would be perfectly coherent at all points in space. In practice, however, the region of high coherence may extend over only a finite distance.

Industry:Telecommunications
Pertaining to a material whose electrical or optical properties vary with (a) the direction of propagation of a traveling wave or with (b) different polarizations of a traveling wave. Note 1: Anisotropy is exhibited by non-cubic crystals, which have different refractive indices for lightwaves propagating in different directions or with different polarizations. Note 2: Anisotropy may be induced in certain materials under mechanical strain.
Industry:Telecommunications
Pertaining to a material with properties, such as density, electrical conductivity, electric permittivity, magnetic permeability, or refractive index that do not vary with distance or direction. 2. Pertaining to a material with magnetic, electrical, or electromagnetic properties that do not vary with the direction of static or propagating magnetic, electrical, or electromagnetic fields within the material.
Industry:Telecommunications
Pertaining to a process in which all events occur one after the other; for example, the serial transmission of the bits of a character according to the ITU-T V. 25 protocol. 2. Pertaining to the sequential or consecutive occurrence of two or more related activities in a single device or channel. 3. Pertaining to the sequential processing of the individual parts of a whole, such as the bits of a character or the characters of a word, using the same facilities for successive parts.
Industry:Telecommunications
Pertaining to a procurement process that (a) includes contractual actions at least through the system, subsystem, or equipment installation phase and (b) may include follow-on contractual actions, such as testing, training, logistical, and operational support. Note: Precise definition of the types of allowable contractual features are contained in the Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR. )
