maximum power transfer
1Maximum power transfer theorem — In electrical engineering, the maximum power transfer theorem states that, to obtain maximum external power from a source with a finite internal resistance, the resistance of the load must be equal to the resistance of the source as viewed from… …
2Maximum power theorem — In electrical engineering, the maximum power (transfer) theorem states that, to obtain maximum external power from a source with a finite internal resistance, the resistance of the load must be made the same as that of the source. It is claimed… …
3Power transfer limit — The maximum power that can be transferred from one electric utility system to another without overloading any facility in either system. U.S. Dept. of Energy, Energy Information Administration s Energy Glossary …
4Transfer switch — Transfer switches allow switching from a primary power source to a secondary or tertiary power source and are employed in some electrical power distribution systems. Most often transfer switches can be seen where emergency power generators are… …
5Power over Ethernet — or PoE technology describes a system to transfer electrical power, along with data, to remote devices over standard twisted pair cable in an Ethernet network. This technology is useful for powering IP telephones, wireless LAN access points,… …
6Maximum throughput scheduling — is a procedure for scheduling data packets in a packet switched best effort communications network, typically a wireless network, in view to maximize the total throughput of the network, or the system spectral efficiency in a wireless network.… …
7Power factor — For other uses, see Power factor (pistol). The power factor of an AC electric power system is defined as the ratio of the real power flowing to the load over the apparent power in the circuit,[1][2] and is a dimensionless number between 0 and 1… …
8Maximum transmission unit — In computer networking, the maximum transmission unit (MTU) of a communications protocol of a layer is the size (in bytes) of the largest protocol data unit that the layer can pass onwards. MTU parameters usually appear in association with a… …
9Maximum entropy spectral estimation — The maximum entropy method applied to spectral density estimation. The overall idea is that the maximum entropy rate stochastic process that satisfies the given constant autocorrelation and variance constraints, is a linear Gauss Markov process… …
10Solar power satellite — A solar power satellite, or SPS or Powersat, as originally proposed would be a satellite built in high Earth orbit that uses microwave power transmission to beam solar power to a very large antenna on Earth. Advantages of placing the solar… …
