Who is the inventor of Wireless Communication?- Radio?

Question

(as finally settled by Patents)

Answer 1

Tesla is usually considered the first to apply the mechanism of electrical conduction to wireless practices.

In 1896, Marconi was awarded the British patent 12039, Improvements in transmitting electrical impulses and signals and in apparatus there-for, for radio

Answer 2

Who Invented The Wireless Radio

Answer 3

Who Invented The Wireless Telegraph

Answer 4

Nikola Tesla - actual inventor

However the answer to your question would be Marconi as the US patent office allowed him to steal the credit

Correction:
From the website below I also found this!

Though Marconi was given credit for inventing radio, the US Supreme Court later recognized (though not until 1943) Tesla's patent as having priority over Marconi's.

So the correct answer would be Tesla

Answer 5

The identity of the original inventor of radio, at the time called wireless telegraphy, is contentious. The controversy over who invented the radio, with the benefit of hindsight, can be broken down as follows:

--Alexander Stepanovich Popov, in 1894, built his first radio receiver, which contained a coherer. Further refined as a lightning detector, he presented it to the Russian Physical and Chemical Society on May 7, 1895.
--Nikola Tesla developed means to reliably produce radio frequencies, publicly demonstrated the principles of radio, and transmitted long-distance signals. He holds the US patent for the invention of the radio, as defined as "wireless transmission of data."
--Guglielmo Marconi was an early radio experimenter, he realized the first long distance transmissions and founded the first commercial organization devoted to the development and use of radio
--Reginald Fessenden [1] and Lee de Forest invented amplitude-modulated (AM) radio, so that more than one station can send signals (as opposed to spark-gap radio, where one transmitter covers the entire bandwidth of the spectrum).
--Edwin H. Armstrong invented frequency-modulated (FM) radio, so that an audio signal can avoid "static," that is, interference from electrical equipment and atmospherics.
--Between 1893 and 1894, Roberto Landell de Moura, a Brazilian priest and scientist, conducted experiments. He did not publicize his achievement until 1900 but later obtained Brazilian and American patents.

Answer 7

Inventor: Guglielmo Marchese Marconi

Criteria: First to invent. First to patent. First practical. Entrepreneur.
Birth: April 25, 1874 in Bologna, Italy
Death: July 20, 1937 in Rome, Italy
Nationality: Italian

Guglielmo Marchese Marconi, Italian electrical engineer and Nobel laureate, known as the inventor of the first practical radio-signaling system. He was born in Bologna and educated at the University of Bologna. As early as 1890 he became interested in wireless telegraphy, and by 1895 he had developed apparatus with which he succeeded in sending signals to a point a few kilometers away by means of a directional antenna.

After patenting his system in Great Britain, he formed (1897) Marconi's Wireless Telegraph Company, Ltd., in London. In 1899 he established communication across the English Channel between England and France, and in 1901 he communicated signals across the Atlantic Ocean between Poldhu, in Cornwall, England, and St. John's, in Newfoundland, Canada. His system was soon adopted by the British and Italian navies, and by 1907 had been so much improved that transatlantic wireless telegraph service was established for public use.

Marconi was awarded honors by many countries and received, jointly with the German physicist Karl Ferdinand Braun, the 1909 Nobel Prize in physics for his work in wireless telegraphy. During World War I he was in charge of the Italian wireless service and developed short-wave transmission as a means of secret communication. In the remaining years of his life he experimented with shortwaves and microwaves.

Answer 8

I'm still waiting on the results of the DNA test before I say anything but communication means signalling to me so Marconi wins

Answer 9

Marconi

Answer 10

Most schools of thought go with Marconi but others say it was Tesla. Both men invented it simultainiously so the debate still rages on.
