LONG-WIRE ANTENNAAn antenna that is a wavelength or more long at its operating frequency [10]. | ||
LONGITUDINAL WAVESThose waves in which the disturbance (back and forth motion) takes place in the direction of propagation. Sometimes called compression waves [10]. | ||
LOOSE COUPLINGInefficient coupling of energy from one circuit to another that is desirable in some applications. Also called weak coupling [11]. | ||
LOW FREQUENCYThe band of frequencies from 30 kHz to 300 kHz [17]. | ||
LOW-LEVEL MODULATIONModulation produced in an earlier stage than the final [12]. | ||
LOW-NOISE AMPLIFIERSee PREAMPLIFIER [18]. | ||
LOW-PASS FILTERA filter that passes a majority of the low frequencies on to the next circuit and rejects, or attenuates, the higher frequencies. Also called a high-frequency discriminator [9] [12]. | ||
LOWER SIDEBANDAll difference frequencies below that of the carrier [12]. | ||
LOWER-FREQUENCY CUTOFFThe lowest frequency a circuit will pass [9]. | ||
