Pfft....then how did he compensate for the variation in field fluctuation in the phase capacitors without creating a ship-wide parophoretic reaction? Technobabble indeed.

As someone who's heard enough TNG technobabble for several lifetimes, it's interesting to me that THIS specific technobabble sounds like a new level of technobabble they've never approached before... In true synchronization with this episode's plot line of Barclay's increased intelligence. In other words, it sounded like "technobabble" even to RIKER, who does not hear technobabble when LaForge warns him that 'the phase inducers have to be calibrated to compensate for the increased gravimetric shear...

Basically, the shields are made up of overlapping fields that interfere with each other to shape the shield bubble (see Fourier series). He used the main deflector to output additional fields to reinforce the shield bubble. A warp field moved the deflector's additional fields to the shields at FTL, so the power was delivered without dissipating (see waveguide).

Nice breakdown. While casual fans and viewers like to mock Trek technobabble, when it is done right, it is purposeful speculative science and extrapolated engineering and physics as known at the time the dialog, scripts were written. ENT, TOS and TNG eras had physics and science, engineering consultants who vetted the dialog and scripts to make sense from a known physics and engineering standpoint, plus allowing for plausible, consistent fictional physics based on current untested, unproven theory. That is, Trek tech dialog is almost never "babble", ie random thrown together techy words. When taken apart as parent post did, most of the time a technically experienced, trained person can tell real thought and input from people who understand math, physics and engineering is evident. All the best sci-fi series and films take care in this manner. Think 2001, much of Tos, TNG eras, The Expanse, Bsg 2003+, etc Discovery lacks all and any vetting and is babble

@@alexxbaudwhyn7572 Yeah, nothing he said was unintelligible. In fact, I'd be willing to bet that bit of babble came from a sound engineer working on the show, since most of what he said is directly applicable to sound amplification.

He’s literally just saying that he combined the output of the shields and the main deflector into one (they function in a similar way). He also says that once he had them combined, he used the parts of the ship that normally create a warp bubble to create a shield bubble instead (made up of both the shield and deflector outputs) which gave it even MORE power. That’s the great thing with classic Trek “technobabble” - it actually DOES have a meaning, albeit a scifi one!

Well. If your on board a ship that can travel faster then light, you have to have a great deal of knowledge of physics and how to handle the ship and its functions. ESPECIALLY when your the captain and second in command of said ship. You need a PhD in just about everything science related just to fly the thing.
