wireless · electrical
a process that uses radio to transfer information through air instead of a physical link
Examples
- The 1901 Marconi transatlantic radio transmission sent the letter 'S' in Morse code from Cornwall to Newfoundland without wires. engineering
- Wi-Fi networks in 2023 urban apartments transmit data between routers and laptops using 2.4 GHz radio waves. computing
- Air traffic control at O'Hare Airport uses VHF radio to guide aircraft through approach patterns without physical connections. everyday life
