heterodyning

When two different-frequency waves start from same source, waves superpose {heterodyning}| to make net wave with frequency {beat frequency} equal to difference between the original frequencies. Two frequencies can mix to make lower difference frequency. For example, if frequency-2 wave superposes with frequency-3 wave, frequency-1 wave results.
