ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Transceiver

A transceiver is like a walkie-talkie that can both send and receive messages. Let's pretend we are playing a game of hide-and-seek. When you are seeking, you need a way to communicate with your friends to find out where they are hiding.

A transceiver is a special device that can send and receive messages. It works like a two-way radio. One person speaks into the device and sends out a signal. The transceiver can detect this signal and then play back the message that was sent.

For example, if your friend is hiding behind a tree, they can use their transceiver to tell you where they are. Then you can use your transceiver to reply and say "I'm coming to find you!"

A transceiver is very useful for communication because it allows people to talk to each other from far away. It's like having a secret code that only you and your friends know. That's why it's used by people like pilots, soldiers, and even astronauts who need to communicate with each other while they are far apart.
