Why does this matter operationally?
Service Assurance
The operational discipline of guaranteeing that connectivity services meet defined performance levels, availability targets, and recovery time objectives. Service assurance combines monitoring, SLA management, and proactive intervention to maintain the reliability that industrial operations depend on.

Machine Vision
Machine Vision is the application of imaging hardware and image-processing or computer-vision software to automate industrial tasks such as inspection, defect detection, measurement, and robotic guidance, typically operating in real…
Concept/Framework
Management Plane
Management Plane is the part of a system used for configuration, monitoring, administration, and operational control of devices or services. It handles oversight and administration separately from user traffic handling.

Mast Shadowing
Mast Shadowing is signal obstruction or attenuation caused by a mast blocking the RF path between an antenna and its target.

Mean Time Between Failures
The average elapsed time between successive failures of a repairable system or component, calculated from observed or estimated failure data, providing a standard basis for expressing and comparing expected failure…
Concept/Framework
Mean Time To Repair
The average elapsed time to detect, diagnose, and resolve a failure and restore a system to normal operation, measured from the failure's occurrence through full restoration rather than only the…
Concept/Framework
Measurement
Measurement is the process of assigning a value to a variable based on observation, sensing, or calculation according to a defined method. The result is used to understand state, compare…
Concept/Framework
MEO
MEO is medium Earth orbit, an orbital regime between low Earth orbit and geostationary orbit used by some satellite systems for communications and navigation.
Concept/Framework
Metrics
Metrics are quantitative measures used to observe or compare the behavior or performance of a system or service. They provide numeric data for monitoring and analysis.

Microwave Link
A microwave link is a directional wireless communications path that uses microwave frequencies to connect two fixed endpoints. It typically forms a transport link for backhaul, intersite connectivity, or critical…
Concept/Framework
Mission Assurance
Mission Assurance is the practice of ensuring that mission objectives can be achieved with acceptable risk across design, operations, and recovery.
