produced by, operating by, or relating to the combination of two radio signals usinga local oscillator set to share the same frequency as that of the carrier wave
a homodyne receiver/system
homodyne in American English
(ˈhouməˌdain, ˈhɑmə-)
adjective
Radio
of or pertaining to reception by a device that generates a varying voltage of the same or nearly the same frequency as the incoming carrier wave and combines it with the incoming signal for detection
Word origin
[1925–30; homo- + dyne]This word is first recorded in the period 1925–30. Other words that entered Englishat around the same time include: chain reaction, distinctive feature, payload, reflex camera, turnaroundhomo- is a combining form appearing in loanwords from Greek, where it meant “same” (homology). On this model, homo- is used in the formation of compound words (homomorphic). Other words that use the affix homo- include: homocyclic, homogentisic acid, homotaxis, homozygote, homozygous
