Keithley Instruments, Cleveland, OH, has just published a guide to understanding the vocabulary of the wireless industry. “Speaking RF: Wireless Communication Terminology” is a 32-page guide that defines a variety of technical terms and decodes the many acronyms in the RF and wireless industry.

Several useful tables are featured in the guide, including a quick Watts vs. dBm Conversion Table and a Return Loss vs. VSWR table, as well as a table that summarizes the technical features of the most common wireless communications standards for digital cellular phones, wireless LANs, and cordless phones. A number of product selector guides and a brief discussion of typical RF switching applications are also included.
