Signal Attenuation: Natural Loss of signal strength that occurs as a signal travels through medium or over a distance.

Binary Phase Shift Keying (BPSK):
– represent digital data using phase; this technique -> phase shift keying (PSK)
– Type of PSK -> binary phase shift keying (BPSK): use of two phase offsets
– Very useful in satellite navigation

Channel:
– Specific Frequences in electromagnetic spectrum
– Used to transmit data wirelessly, made of several channels

Dithering: Intentional addition of small amount of low level random noise to a digital wireless signal; randomize quantization error

Carrier Phase: Measurement of phase of received signal relative to the phase generated by the receiver at the receiption time

Decode and Forward (DF): relaying strategy; relay node receives a signal, decodes it into its original data, reencodes and transmits

Frequency Hoping: change carrier frequency; also known as FHSS (Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frequency-hopping_spread_spectrum
