Here is the definition:
"Singing is the result of sustained oscillations due to positive feedback in telephone amplifiers or amplifying circuits. Circuits that sing are unusable and promptly overload multiplex equipment. Singing may be regarded as echo that is completely out of control. This can occur at the frequency at which the circuit is resonant."
So the meaning is clear, but I cannot find an appropriate Persian equivalent for this term. Thank you in advance for your help!

اختلال صوتی
"Singing" or "harsh singing" in electronic speakers or electronic guitars is a harsh noise (and in telephones, Sound) which spoils work of the set because of over-amplifying in circuit. This word is usually translated into "اختلال صوتی" or "همهمه/خش" in Persian.

Dear sir,
In this situation that you have many near meaning words and need acurate and different meaning for each one I can offer "بیش صدایی" which is an original metaphor and might be true according to the text. I wish it helps you.

Note from asker:
| Thank you for your answer! But I need a very specific equivalent for this term. اختلال صوتی is rather general. I also have "Noise, Distortion, Jitter, Echo, Wander, Slip, ..." in the same text (in a table, actually). |

Dear Reza:
As for the meaning of the term, since it is "due to positive feedback," I assume it's that echo we sometimes experience when talking on a cell phone: we hear whatever we have jsut said! As for the Farsi equivalent, since other similar terms are also used together with this one, I think a word-for-word equivalent would do best here. Some examples would be "reading a gauge," "reading a disk," and "reading a book," which are all translated as "خواندن" or "قرائت." However, what I've suggested is only a rough guess. Nevertheless, referring to your own definition, as "singing may be regarded as echo that is completely out of control" one may also like to translate it as "انعکاس / پژواک غیر قابل کنترل" or "انعکاس / پژواک ناخواسته." But personally, I don't like these last ones!
Hope I have been of some help.

Also, I HAVE heard some engineers using this "خواندن" in contexts where such an echo occurs:
بی سیم می خونه!
هد ست می خونه!
--------------------------------------------------

However, these are only informally used; I wonder if they can be used in a formal text.

As this singing occurs only at the frequency at which the circuit is resonant, one may also like to say "طنين." What's your idea?

Note from asker:
| Thank you Hossein! Actually, this is not only a formal text, but is going to be used for training, so we have to be very careful! This is seemingly not the ordinary "echo" we hear on cell phones, etc., because there is an individual entry for Echo in the table, with the relevant definition. As the definition says, "This can occur at the frequency at which the circuit is resonant". What do you think? |

صوت ناخواسته
I have asked this from one of my friends who is a postgraduate in this field from the US and this is the equivalent he provided, I don't know whether it could be of any use in you context or not.
he said transliteration is usually used in Farsi technical texts
it might be considered as superordinate as well, which hinges on you equivalent classification
anyway just raised that in case it migh be of any help to you

Note from asker:
| Many thanks for your answer Mr. Hasani! This could be a very good equivalent if the other similar terms were not present, but I have to specify what kind of صوت ناخواسته we are talking about, and what name can show its characteristics, especially because the text will be used as a training material. Kindly have a look at my note to Mr. Rostami. Thank you again! |
Discussion
"An undesired self-sustained audio oscillation in a circuit."
Maybe تشدید can deliver this phenomenon, but surely we do not want to use it as a substitute for "resonance" itself.
تشدید صوت ناهنجار may be of anu use!
