English term or phrase: blanketing
Definition from ATIS Committee PRQC :
The interference that is caused by the presence of an AM broadcast signal of one volt per meter (V/m) or greater strengths in the area adjacent to the antenna of the transmitting station. The 1 V/m contour is referred to as the blanket contour and the area within this contour is referred to as the "blanket area." [47CFR]

Example sentence(s):
  • It is, except that the lower base bias resistor is quite small compared to what you'd expect-- the impedance seen "looking into" the amp is 50 ohms, which (presumably) matches your antenna system, and has a great effect on eliminating out-of-band AM blanketing that so often plagues simple homebrew receivers. tricountyi.net
  • I also tried a 7.040 MHz crystal (40 meters) and, while it certainly worked, I found that the old AM broadcast blanketing was happening again. ares.org
  • Occasionally, stations that cause blanketing interference near their antenna will also pop up in more bizarre items, such as computer loudspeakers, which are not even meant to pick up radio stations. Wikipedia

Definition from Wikipedia:
Blanketing is interference caused by strong radio signals. Although the spectral mask of a radio station's transmitter suppresses spurious emissions on other frequencies in the band, being extremely close to a station may allow them to still be strong enough to cause significant interference.

Example sentence(s):
  • The blanketing area around a given transmitting antenna depends on the selectivity and sensitivity of the receiver, and on the respective levels of the other signals in question. - Telecommunications Industry Association

Definition from Πανεπιστήμιο Πειραιά:
Ο θόρυβος που περιέρχεται στις συχνότητες μιας εκπομπής ηλεκτρομαγνητικών κυμάτων είναι συχνά υπεύθυνος για το φαινόμενο της επικάλυψης.

Example sentence(s):
  • Είναι γνωστό ότι, για να μην έχουμε αλλοίωση του σήματος κατά τη δειγματοληψία, πρέπει η συχνότητα δειγματοληψίας να είναι διπλάσια της μέγιστης συχνότητας του σήματος, διαφορετικά εμφανίζεται το φαινόμενο της φασματικής επικάλυψης (aliasing). - Πανεπιστήμιο Πειραιά
