Orphan date February 2009 Unreferenced date January 2009 Presubscribed InterexchangeCarrier Charge PICC , also called Carrier Line Charge , is a charge that United States long distance calling long distance telephone companies pay to incumbent local exchange carrier ILEC to help recover local loop costs. Local companies charge long distance providers to connect callers to their network. Every time a long distance call is made, it must first be routed by the local phone company. In the past, the charge for this routing was billed based on the length of the call. In reality, however, the cost of local access depends more on the number of phone lines. As a consequence, the Federal Communications Commission FCC ordered local access charges be billed on a per line basis and per minute fees be decreased. This is the origin of the PICC. These charges usually show up monthly on long distance bills. The FCC allows long distance companies to charge it but limits how much they charge. The money is supposed to be remitted by the long distance company to the local phone company. This is a per line access charge imposed on businesses that have more than one business telephone line in their premises. PICC charges should never be charged on residential service.

NO CARRIER is a response message that is defined in the Hayes command set .

Refimprove date March 2008 A definition in semiconductor physics , carrier lifetime is defined as the average time it takes for a minority carrier to Carrier generation and recombination recombine . The process through which this is done is typically known as minority carrier recombination . The energy released due to Carrier generation and recombination recombination can be either thermal, thereby heating up the semiconductor thermal recombination or non radiative recombination , one of the sources of waste heat in semiconductor s , or released as photon s optical recombination , used in light emitting diode LEDs and semiconductor laser s . Carrier lifetime plays an important role in Bipolar junction transistor bipolar transistors and solar cells . Carrier lifetime in semiconductor lasers In semiconductor lasers, the carrier lifetime is the time it takes an electron before recombining via non radiative processes in the laser cavity. In the frame of Laser diode rate equations rate equations model , carrier lifetime is used in the charge conservation equation as the time constant of the exponential decay of carriers. The dependence of carrier lifetime on the carrier density is expressed as ref L.A. Coldren and S.W.

The purpose of the carrier is usually either to transmit the information through space as an electromagnetic wave as in radio communication , or to allow several carriers at different frequencies to share a common physical transmission medium by frequency division multiplexing as, for example, a cable television system . Frequency modulation FM and amplitude modulation AM are common modes of modulating the carrier.

In analogue TV technology, residual carrier is the ratio of carrier level which is modulated by the maximum video signal to the unmodulated carrier level. Video signal Main Video signal Video signal VF or more formally composite video signal CVS is the signal which carries the video information as well as some auxiliary signals for synchronizing. In all systems 0 300 mV level is reserved for auxiliary signals and 300 1000 mV is reserved for video information. In monochrome TV, 300 mV or sometimes 350 mV corresponds to black and 1000 mV corresponds to white. In color TV depending on the system used, superimposed color subcarrier may have slightly higher values.

A private carrier is a company that transports only their own goods. ref name Longman Business Longman Business English Dictionary ref The carrier s primary business is not transportation. Private carriers may refuse to sell their services at their own discretion, whereas common carriers must treat all customers equally. Some corporations mix both systems, using common carriers and private carriage in what is called a blended operation. Private carriage usually refers to trucking, but is also found in rail and water transportation, as well as communication. Private carriage is distinguished from Trucker Types of Truck Drivers in North America independent carrier , which is an individual owner operator or trucker who may make deals with private carriers, common carriers, contract carriers, or others as he or she wishes. Private carrier may also refer to communication or communication services. Certain frequencies which are restricted to use by law enforcement are sometimes called private carriers . Station class codes beginning with FB6 or FB7 are private carriers. In the telecommunications industry, defining private carrier and common carrier has become increasingly difficult with the growth of mobile phone service providers, VOIP , and other non traditional means of delivering communication services.
