Federal Communications Commission. A U.S. government agency that
supervises, licenses, and controls electronic and electromagnetic
transmission standards.
Frequency Division Duplex. Full duplex operation by using a pair of
frequencies, one for transmission and one for reception.
Forward Error Correction. A method of communicating data that can
corrects errors in transmission on the receiving end. Prior to
transmission, the data is put through a predetermined algorithm that
adds extra bits specifically for error correction to any character or code
block. If the transmission is received in error, the correction bits are
used to check and repair the data.
Fast Fourier Transform. An algorithm for converting data from the
time domain to the frequency domain; often used in signal processing.
File Transfer Protocol. A protocol for exchanging files over the Internet.
FTP uses the Internet's TCP/IP protocols to enable data transfer.
Graphical User Interface. In a GUI operating system, the user
responds to graphic images on the screen instead of typing in
commands in response to a prompt.
A protocol suite defined by ITU-T for voice transmission over internet
(Voice over IP or VoIP). In addition to voice applications, H.323
provides mechanisms for video communication and data collaboration,
in combination with the ITU-T T.120 series standards.
HyperText Transfer Protocol. The protocol used to transmit and receive
all data over the World Wide Web.
Indoor Unit
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. IEEE (pronounced
I-triple-E) is an organization composed of engineers, scientists, and
students. The IEEE is best known for developing standards for the
computer and electronics industry. In particular, the IEEE 802
standards for local-area networks are widely followed.
A Local Area Network protocol suite commonly known as Ethernet.
Ethernet uses Carrier Sense Multiple Access bus with Collision
Detection CSMA/CD. This method allows users to share the network
cable. However, only one station can use the cable at a time. A variety
of physical medium dependent protocols are supported.
