Also known as the distortionless condition, it can be used to improve the performance of a transmission line by adding loading to the cable.

Famous quotes containing the word condition:
“Beautiful credit! The foundation of modern society. Who shall say that this is not the golden age of mutual trust, of unlimited reliance upon human promises? That is a peculiar condition of society which enables a whole nation to instantly recognize point and meaning in the familiar newspaper anecdote, which puts into the mouth of a distinguished speculator in lands and mines this remark:MI wasnt worth a cent two years ago, and now I owe two millions of dollars.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (18351910)
