Birth
· ·
1865 Maxwell predicts the existence of electromagnetic waves 1886-87 Hertz demonstrates that the waves exist
- "This is just an experiment that proves Maestro Maxwell was right - we just have these mysterious electromagnetic waves that we cannot see with the naked eye. But they are there." - "So, what's next?" - "Nothing, I guess."

·

1890 Marconi invents the first practical wireless telegraph, develops commercial applications
Bandwidth: unconfined Data Rate ~ 1 bit/s Limited number of telegraphs can operate simultaneously, as they interfere with each other!

·

1891 Heaviside
"Three years ago, electromagnetic waves were nowhere. Shortly afterward, they were everywhere." (Electromagnetic theory, Vol. 1)

National Science Foundation

Infancy
1900 First Radio stations:
> US Navy among earliest to adopt radio technology (shore telegraph)

·1 ·1

906 Beginnings of regulation
> 1906 Berlin Conference: INTERNATIONAL WIRELESS TELEGRAPH CONVENTION
> First "allocations" to shipboard stations: = 300 m or 600 m

· ·

1890s

910 Beginnings of broadcasting:
> First AM stations; Lee De Forest invents the Audion tube
"De Forest has said in many newspapers and over his signature that it would be possible to transmit human voice across the Atlantic before many years. Based on these absurd and deliberately misleading statements, the misguided public ... has been persuaded to purchase stock in his company". US. Attorney General's accusation against De Forest, 1913

First attempts to detect radio emission from the Sun: Edison, Lodge, Wilsing and Scheiner

1900

Nordman uses 175-m long antenna, at 3100 m height (Swiss Alps) in attempt to detect solar radio emission

·1

912 Beginnings of Amateur radio
> US Radio Act restricts amateurs to f > 1500 kHz, considered "useless"

National Science Foundation

Adolescence · ·
1914-1918 WWI: Beginnings of Aeronautical Radio 1925-1941 First TV transmissions (US, UK, Germany)
> "Television won't matter in your lifetime or mine" R. Lambert, The Listener, Editorial, 1936

·

1932 Beginnings of Radio Astronomy
> K. Jansky, searching for the origins of interference in long distance telephone links, detects cosmic radio emission. > Grote Reber builds first radio telescope specifically designed to detect cosmic emissions

·

1924-1944 Nyquist, Hartley, Shannon develop information theory

National Science Foundation

·

Youth
1920s 1940 Development of radar: UK, Germany, France, U.S.
> First radars operate up to 30 MHz, later up to 3 GHz! > Peak power ~ 200 kW

·
·

1947-1950 Radio astronomy develops, as surplus WWII military equipment (radar dishes) become available
1958 First radio map of the Galaxy, Oort, Kerr and Westerhout

·

·

1950-60 FM radio and color TV become widespread

· ·

Earth rotation synthesis developed, pulsars discovered Nobel Prize to Hewish and Ryle, 1974 1959 Radio astronomy becomes a "radio service" 1963 IUCAF established

National Science Foundation

The Satellite Era
·
1964 First communication satellite launched into geostationary orbit (1964)
· considering f) "that while frequencies for communication with objects in extraterrestrial space are being selected at present on the basis of particular communication requirements and technological capabilities, the inevitable increase in this type of communication is likely to lead to a chaotic situation in the radio spectrum" from CCIR Recommendation No 259, Los Angeles, 1959 1960s and early 1970s used for voice and limited data transmission 1975 First TV broadcasting satellites launched

1956 Obse 1958 Zone 1980

US National Radio rvatory (NRAO) established in the National Radio Quiet (NRQZ) VLA completed

Geographical Separation, Radio Quiet Zone No Longer Sufficient to Protect Radio Astronomers from Interference

1982 GPS, GLONASS,

permanently block portions of the sky, from everywhere on Earth at all times in some bands

> >

·

1980s Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite systems developed
> > > GLONASS system developed; Experimental GPS satellites launched Satellite-based position determination becomes a major industry Multiple constellations developed for global or nearly-global voice and data coverage (Iridium, Globalstar, etc.)

1993 VLBA completed 1998 Iridium system becomes operational

National Science Foundation

Present
· · · · · · ·
1970's Cordless phones > At first, use ~2 MHz > 1986 46/49 MHz bands

·

1993 Planning for SKA begins

Geographical Separation, Radio Quiet Zones and Regulatory Protections No Longer Sufficient Mitigation Techniques Begin to Be developed

·

"To my knowledge, the IAU doesn't play an active role with ITU - and conversely, but perhaps I'm wrong. I know nothing about our membership with ITU, nor about the reasons why, while being a member, we currently don't have to pay the ITU fees."
