  2. Induction lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_lamp

    Its origins are in microwave discharge light sources used for ultraviolet curing in the semiconductor and printing industries. [1] Since 1994, General Electric has produced its induction lamp Genura with an integrated high frequency driver, operating at 2.65 MHz. In 1996, Osram started selling their Endura induction light system, operating at ...

  3. Smart antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_antenna

    Smart antennas (also known as adaptive array antennas, digital antenna arrays, multiple antennas and, recently, MIMO) are antenna arrays with smart signal processing algorithms used to identify spatial signal signatures such as the direction of arrival (DOA) of the signal, and use them to calculate beamforming vectors which are used to track and locate the antenna beam on the mobile/target.

  4. Television antenna - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_antenna

    A short antenna pole next to a house Multiple Yagi TV aerials. Antennas are commonly placed on rooftops and sometimes in attics. Placing an antenna indoors significantly attenuates the level of the available signal. [19] [20] Directional antennas must be pointed at the transmitter they are receiving; in most cases great accuracy is not needed ...

  5. Wireless light switch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireless_light_switch

    Wireless light switches eliminate the wire from the light to the switch location. This is useful in remodelling situations where new wiring can be a hassle. Rather than tearing down a wall to gain access to the wires, a wireless switch can be used. This avoids any need to access wires and makes remodelling fast and simple.

  6. Broadcast transmitter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast_transmitter

    A broadcast transmitter is an electronic device that radiates radio waves modulated with information content intended to be received by the general public. Examples are a radio broadcasting transmitter which transmits audio (sound) to broadcast radio receivers (radios) owned by the public, or a television transmitter, which transmits moving images to television receivers (televisions).

  7. Analog passthrough - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analog_passthrough

    In such a case, the two options would be to use the coax output exclusively, either when viewing analog TV only (which requires plugging and unplugging cables) or full-time (with the reduced digital TV quality produced using the coax output).

  8. Loading coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loading_coil

    When so loaded the antenna presents a pure resistance to the transmission line, preventing energy from being reflected. The loading coil is often placed at the base of the antenna, between it and the transmission line (base loading), but for more efficient radiation, it is sometimes inserted near the midpoint of the antenna element (center ...

  9. Reflector (antenna) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflector_(antenna)

    a passive element slightly longer than and located behind a radiating dipole element that absorbs and re-radiates the signal in a directional way as in a Yagi antenna array. a flat reflector such as used in a Short backfire antenna or Sector antenna. a corner reflector used in UHF television antennas. a cylindrical reflector as used in Cantenna.
