2. Fiber-optic communication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiber-optic_communication

   Fiber-optic communication is a method of transmitting information from one place to another by sending pulses of infrared or visible light through an optical fiber. [1][2] The light is a form of carrier wave that is modulated to carry information. [3] Fiber is preferred over electrical cabling when high bandwidth, long distance, or immunity to ...

3. Power-line communication - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power-line_communication

   Power-line communication. Power-line communication (PLC) is the carrying of data on a conductor that is also used simultaneously for AC electric power transmission or electric power distribution to consumers. The line that does so is known as a power-line carrier. In the past, power lines were solely used for transmitting electricity.

4. Telemetry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telemetry

   A telemeter is a physical device used in telemetry. It consists of a sensor, a transmission path, and a display, recording, or control device. Electronic devices are widely used in telemetry and can be wireless or hard-wired, analog or digital. Other technologies are also possible, such as mechanical, hydraulic and optical.

5. Network analyzer (electrical) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_analyzer_(electrical)

   ZVA40 vector network analyzer from Rohde & Schwarz.. A network analyzer is an instrument that measures the network parameters of electrical networks.Today, network analyzers commonly measure s–parameters because reflection and transmission of electrical networks are easy to measure at high frequencies, but there are other network parameter sets such as y-parameters, z-parameters, and h ...

6. Radio spectrum - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radio_spectrum

   Radio bands. The radio spectrum is the part of the electromagnetic spectrum with frequencies from 3 Hz to 3,000 GHz (3 THz). Electromagnetic waves in this frequency range, called radio waves, are widely used in modern technology, particularly in telecommunication. To prevent interference between different users, the generation and transmission ...

7. Network traffic measurement - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_traffic_measurement

   Network traffic measurement. In computer networks, network traffic measurement is the process of measuring the amount and type of traffic on a particular network. This is especially important with regard to effective bandwidth management.
