crosstalk
<electronics> Interference caused by two signals becoming partially
superimposed on each other due to electromagnetic (inductive) or electrostatic
(capacitive) coupling between the conductors carrying the signals. A common
example of crosstalk is where the magnetic field from changing current flow in
one wire induces current in another wire running parallel to the other, as in a
transformer. Crosstalk can be reduced by using shielded cables and increasing
the distance between conductors.
