The concept of wireless communication dates back to the late 19th century, when Guglielmo Marconi successfully transmitted radio signals over long distances. The first wireless telegraph was developed in the 1890s, followed by the introduction of amplitude modulation (AM) and frequency modulation (FM) in the early 20th century. The 1980s saw the emergence of mobile cellular networks, with the first commercial cellular network launched in 1983.
Wireless communication has revolutionized the way we interact, work, and live. From the early days of radio communication to the current era of 5G networks, wireless technology has come a long way. In this overview, we'll take a journey through the fundamentals of wireless communication, exploring its history, key concepts, and the latest advancements.
