The source of electrical power that usually supplies the station main bus. Note 1: The primary power source may be a Government-owned generating plant or a public utility power system. Note 2: A Class A primary power source assures, to a high degree of reliability, a continuous supply of ac electrical power.
Industry:Telecommunications
The time required for a signal to travel from one point to another.
Industry:Telecommunications
Transmission of a continuously varying signal as opposed to transmission of a discretely varying signal.
Industry:Telecommunications
Time-division multiplexing in which asynchronous transmission is used.
Industry:Telecommunications
To return, to the sender, e-mail that is, for whatever reason, undeliverable to its intended destination. Note 1: There are various reasons why e-mail may be bounced. Examples are an incorrect address, problems with local network facilities, and problems with telecommunications links. Note 2: Bounced e-mail is often accompanied by an error message describing the reason that it was not delivered.
Industry:Telecommunications
The substitution of the characters of one alphabet for the corresponding characters of a different alphabet, usually accomplished on a character-by-character basis. Note 1: An example of alphabet transliteration is the substitution of the Roman letters a, b, and p for the Greek letters , , and , respectively. Note 2: Alphabet transliteration is reversible. Note 3: Alphabet transliteration often becomes necessary in telecommunications systems because of the different alphabets and codes used worldwide. Note 4: In alphabet transliteration, no consideration is given to the meaning of the characters or their combinations.

Industry:Telecommunications
The synchronization of two television signals at the vertical, horizontal, and chroma phase levels such that the signals may be cut, mixed, or cross-faded without noticeable roll, jump, or chroma shift. Note: Modern usage accomplishes this with a frame synchronizer/time base corrector, but it may also be accomplished by a closed loop method or an open loop method, the latter using a pair of rubidium clocks and a video delay line to maintain chroma lock.
