INVENTORS

Samuel Finley Breese Morse

(April 27, 1791 - April 2, 1872)
He is an American painter who turned inventor. After having established his reputation as a portrait
painter, in his middle age Morse contributed to the invention of a single-wire telegraph system based
on European telegraphs. He was a co-developer of the Morse code, and | helped to develop the
commercial use of telegraphy.

Alexander Graham Bell

(March 3, 1847 - August 2, 1922) ;
Bell's father, grandfather, and brother had all been associated with work on speech, and both his
mother and wife were deaf, profoundly influencing Bell’s lfe's work. His research on hearing and
speech further led him to experiment with hearing devices which eventually culminated in Bell being
awarded the first US patent for the telephone in 1876. In retrospect, Bell considered his most famous
invention as intrusion on his real work as a scientist and refused to have a telephone in his study.

Heinrich Rudolf Hertz

(22 February 1857 - 1 January 1894)
was a German physicist who first | conclusively proved the existence of | electromagnetic waves
theorized by James Clerk Maxwell's electromagnetic theory of light. Hertz proved the theory by
engineering instruments to transmit and receive radio pulses using experimental procedures that
ruled out all other known wireless phenomena. The scientific unit & frequency - cycles per second -
was | named the "hertz" in his honor.

Jean-Maurice-Emile Baudot
(September 11, 1845 ~ March 28, 1903)
French telegraph engineer and inventor of the first means of digital communication Baudot code, was
one of the pioneers of telecommunications. He invented a multiplexed printing telegraph system that
used his code and allowed multiple transmissions over a single line. The baud unit was named after
him.

GENERAL TERMINOLOGIES

RADIO STATION
a radio installation consisting of transmitters, transceivers, or receivers capable of rendering
communication service in adistant place.

TELE
a Greek word which means “far” in English language.

PHONE
is a Greek word which means “sound” or “speech” or “volce" in English language.

GRAPH
is a Greek word which means “write” in English language.

TELECOMMUNICATION
any transmission, emission, or reception of signals, writings, images, sounds or intelligence of any
nature of wire, radio, visual, or other electromagnetic waves.

ELECTROMAGNETICWAVES
combination of an electric field and magnetic field

RADIO WAVES
produced by reversal of current in a conductor of a frequency in the range from 10KHz to 3000GHz.

TELEPHONY
a system of communication set up for transmission of speech or in case of another sound.
TELEGRAPHY
a telecommunication for the transmission of written matter by the use of signal, code or Morse code
signal.

TELEVISION
a system of communication for the transmission of transient images or fixed or moving objects.

FACSIMILE
a system of communication for the transmission of fixed images with a view to their reception in
permanent form.

TELEGRAM
a written matter intended to be transmitted by telegraphy for Qelivery to an addressee.

RADIO TELEGRAM
telegram originally intended for mobile station transmitted all or parts of its route, over the radio
telecommunication channels, for mobile services.

FREQUENCY
is a number of variations of a wave or cycle per second having a unit Hertz, Kilohertz, Megahertz,
Gigahertz, and Terahertz.

CALLSIGN
is aname of radio station or identification.

BAUD
the shortest time interval in telegraphic mechanics and has a duration of any speed of one — half a
kewing cycle, used a part of a five basic signals.

 DIGITAL COMMUNICATION
DIFFERENT TYPES OF DIGITAL COMMUNICATION

- We are living in the Information Age, and there has never been as apt a name for a particular period
of human history. Digital technologies have revolutionized communication in the modern world - a
revolution so rapidly integrated into our lives that we can scarcely remember how we used to make a
phone call or exchange messages back in the analog days. The Internet and cell phones are two of
the most prominent examples of the influence of the Information Age, but there are many other types
of digital communication technologies.

- There are many different ways of communicating digitally. You may have used some or all of them in
everyday situations. The firstis used on most modern computers.

- Electronic mail (o e-mail for short) is a method of creating, sending, storing and receiving
messages over an electronic communication system. It uses a protocol (a rule) for sending messages
called Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP for short).

- Mobile phones are used by lots of people today to talk, send text messages, take and send
pictures, listen to music, or surf the internet. In fact you can do so much with a mobile phone it can be
a complete communication tool.

- Video conferencing provides two-way video transmission between different sites. It could be
between two buildings, or even across different countries. Every video conferencing facility allows for
call set-up, call coordination and display of participants. It is normally used with a video conferencing
screen so you can see the people in each of the video conferencing rooms.

- ASCHl is a computer code that is similar to binary. Instead of using 1's and 0's like binary it uses the
numbers from 1-256

- The Binary code is a code that the computers recognize using only 1's and 0'. It is a very
complicated code because they are different for lowercase and capital. 1

- Braille is what blind people read. It is a series of raised dots that tell you what letter,
‘number, or word it is.

- Pigpen Cipher was created by the Freemasons so they could keep documents safe. It was also
used by the confederate soldiers during the Civil War. It is called The Pigpen Cipher because the
box's look like pigpens and the dots look like pigs. It seems complicated but it isn't really. The lines
surrounding the letter and the dots within those lines are the symbols.

- Morse Code is a method used in telecommunication to encode text characters as standardized

sequences of two different signal durations, called dots and dashes or dits
and dahs. Morse code is named after Samuel Morse, an inventor of the telegraph.
