WHAT DOES SUPERHET MEAN IN ENGLISH?

superhet

Superheterodyne receiver

In electronics, a superheterodyne receiver, uses frequency mixing to convert a received signal to a fixed intermediate frequency, which can be more conveniently processed than the original radio carrier frequency. It was invented by US engineer Edwin Armstrong in 1918 during World War I. Virtually all modern radio receivers use the superheterodyne principle. At the cost of an extra frequency converter stage, the superheterodyne receiver provides superior selectivity and sensitivity compared with simpler designs.
