Is it really technobabble when that makes perfect sense? I mean the pulse goes back in the opposite direction and damages the emitters. Looks like a feedback pulse to me.

No, it isn't. Technobabble is, by definition, incomprehensible. If the average person can understand it, or at least get get gist of it, it isn't really technobabble. Unfortunately, it is far more common in Star Trek for them to "decouple the quantum phase arrays, and reverse the polarity of the simplex magneto-organic fields, creating a inverse phase carrier wave that will disrupt the isometric polarity of their shields."
At that point, as I said, you might as well be shooting bull**** out the torpedo tubes.
