Contributors in Electronic engineering

Electronic engineering

Double-throw

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Operating in opposite directions as selected (e.g., a double-throw relay or switch).

A station

Engineering; Electronic engineering

One of the two stations in the transmitting system of LORAN (long-range navigation).

B channel

Engineering; Electronic engineering

One of the channels of a two-channel stereophonic system. Compare a channel.

Bay

Engineering; Electronic engineering

One of several sections of a directional antenna array.

Digital sound

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Sound recording and reproduction accomplished with digital, rather than analog, signals. Advantages include wideband frequency response, superior dynamic range, and relative immunity to noise.

Amplitude-modulation noise

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Spurious amplitude modulation of a carrier wave by extraneous signals and random impulses, rather than by the intended data-containing signal.

Atmospheric electricity

Engineering; Electronic engineering

Static electricity present in the atmosphere, which evidences itself in disturbance of radio communications and in displays of lightning.
