Optical heterodyne detection — is an important special case of heterodyne detection. In heterodyne detection, a signal of interest at some frequency is non linearly mixed with a reference local oscillator (LO) that is set at a close by frequency. The desired outcome is the… … Wikipedia
Optical Carrier transmission rates — are a standardized set of specifications of transmission bandwidth for digital signals that can be carried on Synchronous Optical Networking (SONET) fiber optic networks.[1] Transmission rates are defined by rate of the bitstream of the digital… … Wikipedia
Optical communication — is any form of telecommunication that uses light as the transmission medium. An optical communication system consists of a transmitter, which encodes a message into an optical signal, a channel, which carries the signal to its destination, and a… … Wikipedia

Signal reflection — occurs when a signal is transmitted along a transmission medium, such as a copper cable or an optical fiber, some of the signal power may be reflected back to its origin rather than being carried all the way along the cable to the far end. This… … Wikipedia
Signal lamp — training during World War II. A signal lamp (sometimes called an Aldis lamp, named after Arthur C. W. Aldis who invented a widely used design) is a visual signaling device for optical communication (typically using Morse code). Modern signal… … Wikipedia
Optical RFID — (aka OPID) is an alternative to RFID that is based on optical readers. Applications for optical RFID tags may be found in future supply chain scenarios. The main advantage in comparison to traditional RFID tags is their low price and the usually… … Wikipedia
