DelayTime needed for the signal to travel between the points considered | |
Denial of ServiceAttack
to a service, often by flooding it with queries | ||
Device under testMeasure for the degree to which the radiation emitted of an antenna is
concentrated in a single direction | ||
DiffractionDeflection of waves at an obstacle, can cause a wave to spread into areas that would be blocked straight trough the obstacle, e.g. bending around corners. | |
Digital Enhanced Cordless TelecommunicationWireless standard that is very often used for landline phones | ||
Dipole antennaRod antenna, may be built using a two-line conductor as feed which is bend open in 90° to each side to form the rod with feed in the middle. The total length of the dipole is normally one-half wavelength though other lengths are used in certain cases. An ideal dipole is a combination of two opposite charges of the same magnitude having a very small distance between them. | |
Dirac pulseInfinitely small pulse with infinite height, normed to an area of 1 | ||
Direct signalTravels directly from ttransmitter to receiver | ||
Direction VectorVector indication a certain direction; a vector is a geometric object that has magnitude or length and direction | |
