broadcast radiation

For instance, by the mid-twentieth century on Earth, little broadcast radiation leaked into space.

This can be accomplished in three basic ways: moving physical media around, broadcasting radiation through space, and sending signals through wires.

Broadcast radiation is the accumulation of broadcast and multicast traffic on a computer network.

The basic function of STP is to prevent bridge loops and the broadcast radiation that results from them.

In the case of broadcast packets (broadcast radiation) over a switching loop, the situation may develop into a broadcast storm.

Further complication arises when adjacent transmitters have to transmit on the same frequency and under these circumstances the broadcast radiation patterns are attenuated in the relevant direction(s).

The loop creates broadcast radiation as broadcasts and multicasts are forwarded by switches out every port, the switch or switches will repeatedly rebroadcast the broadcast messages flooding the network.

Although this does not resolve the root broadcast radiation problem, it limits broadcast radiation intensity and thus allows a network manager to communicate with network equipment to diagnose and resolve the root problem.
