COAXIAL CABLECable in which the center conductor is separated from an outer conductor by a dielectric material; used in RF transmission [4]. | ||
COAXIAL LINEA type of transmission line that contains two concentric conductors [10]. | ||
CODEIn teletypewriter operation, code is a combination of mark and space conditions representing symbols, figures, or letters [17]. | ||
COHERENCEA definite phase relationship between two energy waves, such as transmitted frequency and reference frequency [18]. | ||
COHERENTRadiation on one frequency [17]. | ||
COHERENT OSCILLATORIn cw radar an oscillator that supplies phase references to provide coherent video from target returns [18]. | ||
COILAn inductive device made by looping turns of wire around a core [2]. | ||
COLD-CATHODE TUBEA gas-filled electron tube that conducts without the use of filaments. Cold- cathode tubes are used as voltage regulators [6]. | ||
COLLECTORThe element in a transistor that collects the current carriers [7]. | ||
