isotropic - technical definition
- Having physical properties (e.g., conductivity, elasticity, and power density) that are the same in any direction of measurement.
- In telecommunications, an antenna, light source, or sound source that theoretically radiates a signal with equal power density in all directions. A purely isotropic source does not exist, except in theory. In telecommunications, as in all things natural and unnatural, perfection is purely theoretical.
