ATIS is the leading technical planning and standards development organization committed to the rapid development of global, market-driven standards for the information, entertainment and communications industry.
The common use of communications facilities by two or more military services, each belonging to a different nation. Note: Such use might be specified by a combined communications-electronics agency.
Industry:Telecommunications
The common facility between a network switch and a CPE switch.
Industry:Telecommunications
The common boundary between a mobile station and the radio equipment in the network, which is the boundary defined by functional characteristics, physical interconnection characteristics, signal characteristics, and other characteristics as appropriate.
Industry:Telecommunications
The combining of wire circuits with radio facilities.
Industry:Telecommunications
The combining of two or more information channels onto a common transmission medium. Note: In electrical communications, the two basic forms of multiplexing are time-division multiplexing (TDM) and frequency-division multiplexing (FDM. ) In optical communications, the analog of FDM is referred to as wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM. )
Industry:Telecommunications
The combining of telecommunications and computer operations interacting in the automatic processing, reception, and transmission of data and/or information. Note: Teleprocessing includes human-machine interface equipment.
Industry:Telecommunications
The combining of multiplexed signals prior to the modulation of the carrier. Synonym premodulation combining.
Industry:Telecommunications
The close-in region of an antenna wherein the angular field distribution is dependent upon distance from the antenna. Synonyms near field, near zone. 2. In optical fiber communications, the region close to a source or aperture. Note: The diffraction pattern in this region typically differs significantly from that observed at infinity and varies with distance from the source.
Industry:Telecommunications
The combined effect of the Earth's magnetic field and atmospheric ionization, whereby a linearly polarized wave entering the ionosphere is split into two components called the ordinary wave and the extraordinary wave. Note: The component waves follow different paths, experience different attenuations, have different phase velocities, and, in general, are elliptically polarized in opposite senses.
Industry:Telecommunications
The combined amount of changes billed, excluding arrears.
