To prove his idea, Marconi began to collect experimental data. As a result, Marconi successfully saw the phenomenon observed by Hertz. In the second year, radio signals can travel 2.7 kilometers. This success gave Marconi a dream to extend the radio network to the whole world.
In order to increase the signal receiving distance, Marconi developed a detector. He also made a larger inductance coil and connected it to the antenna to make the signal reach a longer distance. After the test, the signal was transmitted to a place beyond 1.6 km. So Marconi invented his own wireless telegraph.
1896, Marconi applied to the Italian government for funds to build a larger transmitter, which was rejected by the local government. However, this invention has been highly valued by the scientific and industrial circles in London. 1896 obtained the invention patent of radio communication and established Marconi wireless telegraph company. At that time, Marconi's radio waves could travel as far as 160 km. After winning financial support, he built a 25,000-kilowatt launch pad on the west coast of England.
19011210 In Newfoundland, Canada, Marconi fixed the antenna to a kite and tied it to a rope. When the kite flew to the height of 122 meters, it received a preset three-point signal. This success immediately caused a sensation all over the world, which also became the starting point for the extensive development of radio communication, broadcasting and other technologies.
19 10, Marconi received news from about 9600 kilometers away. 19 16 years, he used short wave to increase the transmitter power by 100 times.
Not only that, Marconi also used parabolic antenna for microwave orientation in 1932; 1934, he personally demonstrated the application of microwave navigation in fog, and the following year, he also suggested using microwave to spread TV.
In recognition of Marconi's outstanding contribution in the field of radio, he shared the Nobel Prize in Physics with German physicist Braun with 1909.
