attenuation

attenuation

attenuation (plural attenuations)

1. A gradual diminishing in the strength of something.
2. (physics) A reduction in the level of some property with distance, especially the amplitude of a wave or the strength of a signal.
3. (biology) A weakening in the virulence of a pathogen or other microorganism.
4. (botany) The tapering of a leaf etc to a fine point.
5. (engineering) A fabrication process in which a material is stretched out into a thin shape.

	attenuazione
	A gradual diminishing in the strength
	The decrease in the magnitude of current, voltage, or power of a signal in transmission between points.
	The weakening of a transmitted signal, such as the distortion of a digital signal or the reduction in amplitude of an electrical signal. Attenuation is usually measured in decibels and is sometimes desirable, as when signal strength is reduced electronically, for example, by a radio volume control, to prevent overloading.
