The electrical signal that represents complete color picture information and all synchronization signals, including blanking and the deflection synchronization signals to which the color synchronization signal is added in the appropriate time relationship. Synonym composite video.
Industry:Telecommunications
The electrical parameters of earth, such as conductivity, permittivity, and magnetic permeability. Note 1: The values of these parameters vary with the local chemical composition and density of the earth. Note 2: For a propagating electromagnetic wave, such as a surface wave propagating along the surface of the Earth, these parameters vary with frequency and direction.
Industry:Telecommunications
The electric field produced by an electrostatic charge.
Industry:Telecommunications
The elapsed time for transit of a signal over a closed circuit. Note: Round-trip delay time is significant in systems that require two-way interactive communication such as voice telephony or ACK/NAK data systems where the round-trip time directly affects the throughput rate. It may range from a very few microseconds for a short line-of-sight (LOS) radio system to many seconds for a multiple-link circuit with one or more satellite links involved. This includes the node delays as well as the media transit time. 2. In primary or secondary radar systems, the time required for a transmitted pulse to reach a target and for the echo or transponder reply to return to the receiver.
Industry:Telecommunications
The effort to achieve and maintain optimal security and survivability of a system throughout its life cycle.
Industry:Telecommunications
The effect produced by the existence of an electric charge, such as an electron, ion, or proton, in the volume of space or medium that surrounds it. Note: Each of a distribution of charges contributes to the whole field at a point on the basis of superposition. A charge placed in the volume of space or in the surrounding medium has a force exerted on it.
Industry:Telecommunications
The EBS is composed of AM, FM, and TV broadcast stations; low-power TV stations; and non-Government industry entities operating on a voluntary, organized basis during emergencies at national, state, or operational (local) area levels.
Industry:Telecommunications
The document that is configured to be displayed first when a Web browser is opened. 2. The document designed to be the user's point of entry into a Web site, or the page that the user first sees when he or she first visits a company's Web site.
Industry:Telecommunications
The document series, begun in 1969, which describes the Internet suite of protocols and related experiments. Not all (in fact very few) RFCs describe Internet standards, but all Internet standards are written up as RFCs.
