Radio

Radio is a technology that uses electromagnetic waves to transmit and receive audio signals over distances without the need for physical connections. It operates by converting sound into electrical signals, which are then modulated onto radio waves. These waves can travel through the atmosphere, allowing the transmission of music, news, talk shows, and other forms of audio content to a wide audience. Radios can operate on various frequency bands, including AM (Amplitude Modulation) and FM (Frequency Modulation), each with distinct characteristics in terms of sound quality and broadcast range. The term “radio” can also refer to the medium of communication itself, including both the technology and the content being transmitted. Additionally, it encompasses various applications, such as two-way communication in walkie-talkies, satellite communications, and internet radio, broadening its role in modern media and communication.
