Velocity Factor

Velocity Factor

Velocity factor, otherwise known as wave propagation velocity or velocity connected with propagation, of a transmission medium would be the ratio of the speed from which a wavefront (of a acoustic signal, as an example, or an electromagnetic indicate, a radio indicate, a light pulse in a very fibre channel or maybe a change of the electrical voltage with a copper wire) passes with the medium, to the velocity of light in a vacuum.
