Evolution of Telecommunication Technology

Today’s telecommunication technologies have evolved from the earliest

smoke signals to almost instant global transmission of large amounts of data.

Early Signaling and Telegraphy

Semaphore - a type of signaling, in which

visual cues represent letters or words.
Morse code - the transmission of a series of short and long pulses (dots and dashes) that represented characters.
Duplexing - simultaneously transmitting a signal in both directions along the same wire.
Multiplexing - simultaneously transmitting an indeterminate number of multiple signals over one circuit.

Infrastructure

Wires criss-crossing cities and states and terminating in several exchanges or

central offices.
Exchange was also known as a switching point because the device used to open and close a circuit is known as a switch.
Operators would connect the circuits and complete the call for the subscriber.
Subscribers refers to a telephone company customer

In 1889 Almon Strowger developed the automatic switch called the

step-by-step.
In 1896 he replaced the button-pushing method with a rotary dialer.

Telephone Technology

In 1913, N.J. Reynolds, a Western Electric engineer, developed a

better automatic switch, the crossbar switch. It used a grid of horizontal and vertical bars, with electromagnets at their ends. The horizontal bars could rotate up and down to connect to specific vertical bars and thus complete circuits.
Original version could complete 10 simultaneous connections.
By the 1970 a single crossbar could connect 35,000 connections.

– first electronic switching system was used
Handled up to 65,000 two-way voice circuits.
Until 1970 all telephone switches depended on a continuous physical connection to complete and maintain the call.

1894- Italian physicist Guglielmo Marconi a method of transmitting electromagnetic

signals through the air.
His invention relied on an induction coil.

Computing - the automatic manipulation

of input based on logical instructions.
Difference engine - an English mathematics professor, proposed an automated calculating machine as large as a locomotive and powered by steam.
Herman Hollerith - used his punch card invention to found the Tabulating Machine company which later became known as International Business Machines (IBM).

Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC) - a multipurpose computer

so large that it required its own 30 foot by 50 foot room.
ENIAC was first used to assist with ballistics calculations.

Memory - in the mid-1940s, a U.S. scientist named Jon

Von Neumann designed a computer that was capable of retaining logical instructions for use at any time, even after the computer had been turned off, then on again.
UNIVAC (Universal Automatic Computer) - the first computer designed for business (and not merely scientific purposes), became available in 1951.
