Marconi's law
Marconi's law
is the relation between height of
antennas
and maximum signaling distance of
radio transmissions
.
Guglielmo Marconi
enunciated at one time an
empirical law
that, for
simple vertical sending
and
receiving antennas
of equal height, the maximum working
telegraphic
distance varied as the square of the height of the antenna. It has been stated that the rule was tested in experiments made on
Salisbury Plain
in 1897, and also by experiments made by Italian
naval officers
on behalf of the
Royal Italian Navy
in 1900 and 1901.
Captain
Quintino Bonomo gave a report of these experiments in an official report.
