English term or phrase: crosstalk
Definition from Javvin Technologies, Inc.:
Crosstalk is a type of Interference from an adjacent channel or wire, which is caused by electromagnetic interference, along a circuit or a cable pair. A telecommunication signal disrupts a signal in an adjacent circuit and can cause the signals to become confused and cross over each other.

Example sentence(s):
  • Crosstalk originating from multiple high-speed data services in the same telephone bundle is a limiting factor for the maximum bit rate, the loop length and the number of data services that a bundle can support. The Pennsylvania State University
  • All current crosstalk mitigation techniques require precise knowledge of the crosstalk coupling functions between the twisted pair wires carrying DSL service within a cable binder. Rice Scholarship
  • Optical bidirectional transmission systems, such as subscriber systems, where two signals are carried over a single fibre are subject to optical crosstalk. This crosstalk causes an unwanted increase of the bit error rate at the receivers in both channels. Institute of Physics and IOP Publishing
