  • The regenerator boosts the signal quality significantly.

Examples

Morphology

regenerator = regenerate (semi-transparent) = re + generate + or

This is a standard instrument noun meaning a device that performs the action of 'regenerate'.

Etymology

Regenerator comes from the parts re- 'again' and generare 'to create', like the common word generate. In technology, a regenerator is a device that 'creates' the signal again, making a weak electrical or digital signal strong enough to travel far.
