Concept in Definition ABC

The term telephone refers to a telecommunication device specially designed to transmit acoustic signals to through electrical signals, being the geographical distance the main question that is solved and simplified with the invention of this apparatus. In other words, with the telephone the communication between people who are at a distance, and of course from its creation it became one of the most outstanding communication modalities that were created to solve this issue.

Importance of the phone

Even today, the telephone is still a hyper popular medium when it comes to communicating, there are even many who are reluctant to abandon it in pursuit of the new options that new technologies bring.

On the phone we have to thank him for coming to improve the communication issue, he streamlined it, he installed it as the means par excellence to communicate at a distance.
And we must also thank him for the impact that he has had in helping us to solve and conclude business with people or companies that are not geographically close. And not to mention the help it brought so that we can intensify affective relationships with our loved ones who, due to their situation, had to settle in some part of the world far from the our.

History and controversy of the invention

Surely, many of you like me grew up believing, because that is how we had been taught in the school, that the inventor of the telephone had been the British scientist Alexander Graham Bell.

However, in 2002 and after a long investigation that he checked it, it turned out that Bell was actually the first to patent it, but actually the The invention is due to Antonio Meucci, who due to an economic impossibility could only present a brief description of his invention but not formalize it before the United States Patent Office, a fact that buried him in ostracism and in the background and that he knew how to take advantage of Graham Bell like no one else ...
As they say speaking badly and soon, Meucci lacked the dollars that Bell had left over for that time and then he could not be responsible for making the phone recognized and massive, a fact that he did achieve Bell.

So who was given all the flowers and laurels went to BellAlthough, it is never too late they say for recognition and with this it seems to be true.

Towards the end of the 19th century, the telephone emerged as the main media on which people counted to communicate with each other in the distance, thanks to the fact that a set of devices and conductive systems transmit sound at a distance as an electromagnetic signal.

Functioning basic and technological improvements achieved

Basically, the telephone is made up of two circuits that always work together, the conversation circuit on the one hand, which is what is called the analog part and on the other hand the dialing circuit, which will take care of the dialing and the call. The dialing circuit formed by the disc, which when reversed will actuate a switch according to the number of times it dial the digit in question, while the bell is connected to the line through a hook, which will be activated when hook off.

Obviously, from its advent to the present, there are countless and practically infinite different successive improvements that were being printed and introducing the invention to of course improve transmission: the carbon microphone, pulse dialing by dial dial, dialing by tones, the condenser microphone, the connection of the fixed telephony with a central using metallic conductors, DSL or Broadband techniques, among others so many.

And a separate paragraph deserves the appearance of the mobile phone or mobile that today makes it easier for us to carry telephony on our feet, wherever we move, from work to home, from home to a friend's, we can continue to be connected by phone with whoever we want to do.

Meanwhile, and in that fabulous universe opened by technology, many more features were added to the mobile phone to the simplest and most recognized way of talking on the phone. Today, we can choose from a variety of incredible mobile phone designs, we can send and receive images and files through the phone, we can browse Internet, as if we had a mini computer in the hand.
