The routing of a given signaling traffic stream under normal conditions (in the absence of failures. )
Industry:Telecommunications
The routing of a call or message over a substitute route when a primary route is unavailable for immediate use. 2. In signaling, the process of allocating substitute routes for a given signaling traffic stream in case of failure (s) affecting the signaling links or routes involved in the normal routing of that signaling traffic stream. 3. In signaling, the routing of a given signaling traffic flow in case of failures affecting the signaling link (s,) or route (s,) involved in the normal routing of that signaling traffic flow. Synonym alternative routing.
Industry:Telecommunications
The route kilometers of revenue producing circuits in service, determined by measuring the length in terms of kilometers, of the actual path followed by the transmission medium.
Industry:Telecommunications
The reversal of the procedure conducted by the compression algorithm, which reversal returns the data to its original size and condition.
Industry:Telecommunications
The reversal of a corresponding reversible encipherment.
Industry:Telecommunications
The return of received data to the source, usually for the purpose of checking the accuracy of transmission by comparison with the original data.
Industry:Telecommunications
The return of a portion of the output, or processed portion of the output, of a (usually active) device to the input. Note 1: The feedback signal will have a certain magnitude and phase relationship relative to the output signal or the input signal. This relationship can be used to influence the behavior, such as the gain and stability, of the overall circuit. Note 2: If the feedback is regenerative (additive,) it is called "positive feedback," which increases gain and distortion, and decreases linearity and stability. Note 3: If the feedback is degenerative (subtractive,) it is called "negative feedback," which reduces the gain and distortion, and increases linearity and stability. Note 4: Feedback may occur inadvertently, and be detrimental. 2. Information returned as a response to an originating source.
Industry:Telecommunications
The region where the angular field distribution is essentially independent of distance from the source. Note 1: If the source has a maximum overall dimension D that is large compared to the wavelength, the far-field region is commonly taken to exist at distances greater than 2D2/ from the source, being the wavelength. Note 2: For a beam focused at infinity, the far-field region is sometimes referred to as the Fraunhofer region. Synonyms far field, far zone, Fraunhofer region, radiation field.
Industry:Telecommunications
The retention of data in any form, usually for the purpose of orderly retrieval and documentation. 2. A device consisting of electronic, electrostatic, electrical, hardware, or other elements into which data may be entered, and from which data may be obtained, as desired.
Industry:Telecommunications
The resumption of the execution of a computer program using the data recorded at a checkpoint.
