Terms for subject United States (7423 entries)

electromagnetic spectrum	The range of frequencies of electromagnetic radiation from zero to infinity. It is divided into 26 alphabetically designated bands
electromagnetic spectrum control	The coordinated execution of joint electromagnetic spectrum operations with other lethal and nonlethal operations that enable freedom of action in the electromagnetic operational environment
electromagnetic spectrum management	Planning, coordinating, and managing use of the electromagnetic spectrum through operational, engineering, and administrative procedures
electromagnetic vulnerability	The characteristics of a system that cause it to suffer a definite degradation (incapability to perform the designated mission) as a result of having been subjected to a certain level of electromagnetic environmental effects
electronic attack	Division of electronic warfare involving the use of electromagnetic energy, directed energy, or antiradiation weapons to attack personnel, facilities, or equipment with the intent of degrading, neutralizing, or destroying enemy combat capability and is considered a form of fires
Electronic Compliance Assistance Tool	ECAT
Electronic Filing Interface	EFI
electronic intelligence	Technical and geolocation intelligence derived from foreign noncommunications electromagnetic radiations emanating from other than nuclear detonations or radioactive sources.
electronic masking	The controlled radiation of electromagnetic energy on friendly frequencies in a manner to protect the emissions of friendly communications and electronic systems against enemy electronic warfare support measures/signals intelligence without significantly degrading the operation of friendly systems
Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer	ENIAC
electronic probing	Intentional radiation designed to be introduced into the devices or systems of potential enemies for the purpose of learning the functions and operational capabilities of the devices or systems
electronic protection	Division of electronic warfare involving actions taken to protect personnel, facilities, and equipment from any effects of friendly or enemy use of the electromagnetic spectrum that degrade, neutralize, or destroy friendly combat capability
electronic reconnaissance	The detection, location, identification, and evaluation of foreign electromagnetic radiations
electronic warfare	Military action involving the use of electromagnetic and directed energy to control the electromagnetic spectrum or to attack the enemy
electronic warfare frequency deconfliction	Actions taken to integrate those frequencies used by electronic warfare systems into the overall frequency deconfliction process
electronic warfare reprogramming	The deliberate alteration or modification of electronic warfare or target sensing systems, or the tactics and procedures that employ them, in response to validated changes in equipment, tactics, or the electromagnetic environment
electronic warfare support	Division of electronic warfare involving actions tasked by, or under direct control of, an operational commander to search for, intercept, identify, and locate or localize sources of intentional and unintentional radiated electromagnetic energy for the purpose of immediate threat recognition, targeting, planning and conduct of future operations
electronics security	The protection resulting from all measures designed to deny unauthorized persons information of value that might be derived from their interception and study of noncommunications electromagnetic radiations, e.g., radar
element	An organization formed around a specific function within a designated directorate of a joint force commander’s headquarters
el-hi	elementary and high school
