responsor

1. (electronics) A receiver used in conjunction with an interrogator to receive and interpret signals from a transponder.Examples: "The duplexing circuits are located between the interrogator and the responsor at the common feed point to the antenna transmission line."; "The distance between two points at which radio stations are located is determined: at one point is an interrogator (radar) , at the other a responsor (radio beacon) ."; "For a secondary radar system, however, two conditions must be satisfied : St > st and Sr > sr where st and sr are the minimum signals which can be detected by the transponder and responsor respectively."
