common mode voltage
The voltage common to both sides of a differential circuit pair. The differential voltage across the circuit pair is the desired signal, whereas the common voltage signal is the unwanted signal that may have been coupled into the transmission line. If the line is perfectly balanced, the common mode voltage cancels out. The degree of cancellation is called the common mode rejection ratio, or CMRR.
