When Was Wireless Communication Invented?

Answer Question

1 Answer - Sort by: Date | Rating

    Wireless communication, also known as wireless telegraphy or simply as wireless was the original name of radio technology. It is not easy to pinpoint the identity of one person as the original inventor of the radio, as many people have claimed to be the father of radio technology. However, this controversy ceases to exist if one goes beyond just the invention of the radio per se. The question must be rephrased as who invented wireless transmission of data.

    The pioneer for this is Nikola Tesla, who holds the patent for this invention. It was he who laid down the fundamental principles of wireless data transmission for the first time in his lectures.

    Later, Jagdish Chandra Bose and Guglielmo Marconi did considerable work to improvise upon the idea of Tesla. The radio receiver was a wireless set, and hence referred to as a wireless telecommunication station, Wireless was a term that became popular in the United Kingdom and Ireland much before the radio began to commercially broadcast other signals such as music.
