Successive Interference Cancellation (SIC) is a technique used by a receiver in a wireless data transmission that allows decoding of two or more packets that arrived simultaneously (in a regular system, more packets arriving at the same time cause a collision).
Self-interference cancellation (SIC) is a signal processing technique that enables a radio transceiver to simultaneously transmit and receive on a single channel, a pair of partially-overlapping channels, or any pair of channels in the same frequency band.
A susceptor is a material used for its ability to absorb electromagnetic energy and convert it to heat (which in some cases is re-emitted as infrared thermal radiation). The electromagnetic energy is typically radiofrequency or microwave radiation used in industrial heating processes.
The adverb sic, meaning 'intentionally so written', first appeared in English c. 1856. [4] It is derived from the Latin adverb sīc , which means 'so', 'thus', 'in this manner'. [ 5 ] According to the Oxford English Dictionary , the verbal form of sic , meaning 'to mark with a sic' , emerged in 1889, E. Belfort Bax 's work in The Ethics of ...

Possibly the source of the ad astra phrases.
The term susceptance does not appear anywhere in Heaviside's collected works, and Heaviside used the term permittance to mean capacitance, not susceptance. [5]
Silicon carbide (SiC) is used as a susceptor in microwave furnaces, a commonly used abrasive, and as a refractory material. Silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4) is used as an abrasive powder. Steatite (magnesium silicates) is used as an electrical insulator. Titanium carbide Used in space shuttle re-entry shields and scratchproof watches.
In statistics, the Bayesian information criterion (BIC) or Schwarz information criterion (also SIC, SBC, SBIC) is a criterion for model selection among a finite set of models; models with lower BIC are generally preferred.
