room designed to suppress RF signals, such that the broadcast of an ELT
placed in the screen room cannot reach the SAR satellite system.
Service Loop
A length of wire or cable, at the connection point, of sufficient length to allow
a component to be withdrawn from its mounting position and disconnected
from its associated wiring.
Tether
A tether is a cord or similar device that anchors something movable to a
stationary point or anchors two items together, such that they cannot
become separated beyond the length of the tether.
TSO
Technical Standard Order
–
A TSO is a minimum performance standard
issued by the FAA for specified materials, parts, processes, and appliances
used on civil aircraft.
UTC
Coordinated Universal Time
–
A time standard based on International Atomic
Time. UTC is the time system used in aviation and is often associated with
Greenwich Mean Time (GMT) and/or “Zulu” time.
VHF
Very High Frequency
–
The 30 MHz to 300 MHz radio frequency band.
VSWR
Voltage Standing Wave Ratio
–
Electrical signals will “echo” back on a wire if
load impedance is not matched to the impedance of the wire. VSWR is a
measurement of the amount of voltage being “echoed,” compared to the
original signal.
