Most correct time for radio switching noise?
I'm wondering what's the most correct term (if any) to use for "switching noise" of a radio transceiver? By that I mean the spikes that originate from turning the power amp on/off while switching between sender and receiver. Apart from **_switch noise_** (which is easy to confuse with switching regulators), **_spectral splatter_** appears to be a common term. Looking at formal radio standards, The EN/ETSI standards just vaguely mention **_transient power_**. While MIL-STD-461 calls it **_switching transients_**, which I find more self-explanatory. I can't find any relevant term at all in FCC Part 15. Are there any other "canonical" sources for the most proper technical terminology?
