CAVITY WAVEMETERAn instrument used to measure microwave frequencies [16]. | |
CELLA single unit that transforms chemical energy into electrical energy. Batteries are made up of cells [1]. | |
CENTER-FEED METHODConnecting the center of an antenna to a transmission line which is then connected to the final (output) stage of the transmitter [10]. | |
CENTIMETER CUBEA unit of volume of large rectangular or square conductors. The cross-sectional area equals 1 square centimeter with a length of 1 centimeter [4]. | |
CHANNELA carrier frequency assignment, usually with a fixed bandwidth [12]. | |
CHARACTERA letter, digit, or other symbol that is used as part of the organization, control, or representation of information [13]. | |
CHARACTERISTIC IMPEDANCEThe ratio of voltage to current at any given point on a transmission line represented by a value of impedance [10]. | |
CHARGERepresents electrical energy. A material having an excess of electrons is said to have a negative charge. A material having a shortage of electrons is said to have a positive charge [1]. | |
CHARGE CYCLEThe period of time that a capacitor in an electrical circuit is storing a charge [2]. | |
CHOKEAn inductor used to impede the flow of pulsating dc or ac by means of self-inductance [6] [7]. | |
