Radio broadcasting is the broadcasting of audio (sound), sometimes with related metadata, by radio waves to radio receivers belonging to a public audience. In terrestrial radio broadcasting the radio waves are broadcast by a land-based radio station, while in satellite radio the radio waves are broadcast by a satellite in Earth orbit. To receive the content the listener must have a broadcast radio receiver (radio). Stations are often affiliated with a radio network that provides content in a common radio format, either in broadcast syndication or simulcast, or both. Radio stations broadcast with several different types of modulation: AM radio stations transmit in AM (amplitude modulation), FM radio stations transmit in FM (frequency modulation), which are older analog audio standards, while newer digital radio stations transmit in several digital audio standards: DAB (Digital Audio Broadcasting), HD radio, DRM (Digital Radio Mondiale). Television broadcasting is a separate service that also uses radio frequencies to broadcast television (video) signals.
History of radio#Broadcasting and History of broadcasting
The earliest radio stations were radiotelegraphy systems and did not carry audio. For audio broadcasts to be possible, electronic detection and amplification devices had to be incorporated.
The thermionic valve (a kind of vacuum tube) was invented in 1904 by the English physicist John Ambrose Fleming. He developed a device he called an "oscillation valve" (because it passes current in only one direction). The heated filament, or cathode, was capable of thermionic emission of electrons that would flow to the plate (or anode) when it was at a higher voltage. Electrons, however, could not pass in the reverse direction because the plate was not heated and thus not capable of thermionic emission of electrons. Later known as the Fleming valve, it could be used as a rectifier of alternating current and as a radio wave detector. This greatly improved the crystal set which rectified the radio signal using an early solid-state diode based on a crystal and a so-called cat's whisker.

La radiodiffusion est l'émission de signaux par l'intermédiaire d'ondes électromagnétiques destinées à être reçues directement par le public en général et s'applique à la fois à la réception individuelle et à la réception communautaire. Ce service peut comprendre des émissions sonores, des émissions de télévision ou d'autres genres d'émission. Il s'agit d'une forme de radiocommunication. Le terme radio est souvent utilisé pour toute la chaîne de conception et de réalisation d'émissions de radio, la transmission avec les émetteurs radio et la réception au travers des postes de radio.
Radio programming is the process of organising a schedule of radio content for commercial broadcasting and public broadcasting by radio stations. The original inventors of radio, from Guglielmo Marconi's time on, expected it to be used for one-on-one wireless communication tasks where telephones and telegraphs could not be used because of the problems involved in stringing copper wires from one point to another, such as in ship-to-shore communications.
