transmission coefficient [tranz′mish·ən ‚kō·i‚fish·ənt] (physics) The value of some quantity associated with the resultant field produced by incident and reflected waves at a given point in a transmission medium divided by the corresponding quantity in the incident wave. The ratio of transmitted to incident energy flux or flux of some other quantity at a discontinuity in a transmission medium; for sound waves, it is called the sound transmission coefficient. The ratio of the transmitted flux of some quantity to the incident flux for a substance of unit thickness. (quantum mechanics) How to thank TFD for its existence?

The host-to-tick transmission coefficient ([[beta]. The transmission coefficient [tau] of a diffracting aperture is defined as the radiant flux transmitted into the positive half space, divided by the radiant flux incident upon it in the limit of geometrical optics. The community also features state of the art sound attenuation design with a minimum sound transmission coefficient of 50. |
