Field coil

The field coil was a form of technology, designed to transmit subspace emissions, which functioned as key components in starship and space station operations, including the sensors, warp drive and communications systems.

A verteron pulse is capable of overloading the field coils aboard a starship.

In order to keep a transporter signal lock on an individual, and counteract the effects of a subspace transporter system, it is necessary to tie a ship's subspace field coils into the transporter system. This tie in can be used for implementing a subspace transport, by means of using the transporter system to shunt something through subspace.

Clogged plasma injectors can cause both the inertial dampers and field coils to go off line.
