In 1886, Heinrich Hertz developed a wireless communication. He used a loop antenna as a
receiver, and observed a similar disturbance.
By 1901, Marconi was sending information across the Atlantic.
A painting of Michael Faraday. Being a great experimentalist, he naturally
dabbled in chemistry, shown here.

ANTENNA IN BIOLOGY
ANTENNA
1. A piece of conducting material in the form of a wire, rod or any other
shape with excitation.
2. A source(Rxr) or radiator(Txr) of electromagnetic waves.
3. A sensor of electromagnetic waves.
4. A transducer.
5. An impedance matching device.
6. A coupler between a generator and space or vice-versa.

Charge uniformly distributed in a
circular cross section cylinder wire
In summary:
1.If a charge is not moving, current is not
created and there is no radiation.
2. If charge is moving with a uniform
velocity: a. There is no radiation if the
wire is straight, and infinite in extent. b.
There is radiation if the wire is curved,
bent, discontinuous, terminated, or
truncated, as shown in Figure.
3. If charge is oscillating in a time-motion,
it radiates even if the wire is straight.
