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.
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).
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 phrase also suggests that bad but justified outcomes should, or eventually will, befall tyrants. It is the state motto of the U.S. state of Virginia.
The susceptor is made from a material resistant to the temperature and metalorganic compounds used, often it is machined from graphite. For growing nitrides and related materials, a special coating, typically of silicon nitride or tantalum carbide , on the graphite susceptor is necessary to prevent corrosion by ammonia (NH 3 ) gas.
