Also, it is //used in the form of radar by sending out signal and relaying them back, satellite navigation systems, cellular and cordless phones, wireless internet, car radios, GPS, digital TV etc.//

The website gives some general information about the inventor of the radio, Guglielmo Marconi who ultimately invented radio communication. -This website also gives a detailed list of helpful sources to learn more about the radio.
