IN PHASEApplied to the condition that exists when two waves of the same frequency pass through their maximum and minimum values of like polarity at the same instant [2]. | ||
IN-CIRCUIT METERA meter permanently installed in a circuit; used to monitor circuit operation [3]. | ||
INCIDENT WAVE(1) The wave that strikes the surface of a medium. (2) The wave that travels from the sending end to the receiving end of a transmission line [10]. | ||
INCOHERENTRefers to radiation on a broad band of frequencies [17]. | ||
INDEX OF REFRACTIONThe degree of bending of an RF wave when passing from one medium to another [18]. | ||
INDICATOREquipment in radar that provides a visual presentation of target position information [18]. | ||
INDUCED CHARGEAn electrostatic charge produced on an object by the electric field that surrounds a nearby object [1]. | ||
INDUCED CURRENTCurrent caused by the relative motion between a conductor and a magnetic field [1]. | ||
