Morse electromagnetic telegraph
Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: It is the first system using electricity to transmit information remotely. The idea was in the air and the inventor had to spend a lot of energy to establish the primacy of his invention. Note that earth was used as a return conductor, which caused crosstalk problems.
Morse code was already optimized to minimize the number of signs based on the frequency of letters in the English language. Before the end of the 19th century, the telegraph connected all the industrialized nations of the world and in particular the member states of the Commonwealth. And submarine cables had already been deployed in most oceans
Français : C'est le premier système utilisant l'électricité pour transmettre de l'information à distance. L'idée était dans l'air et l'inventeur dut dépenser beaucoup d'énergie pour imposer la primauté de son invention. A noter que la terre était utilisée comme conducteur de retour, ce qui a posé des problèmes de diaphonie.
Le code Morse était déjà optimisé pour minimiser le nombre de signes en fonction de la fréquence des lettres dans la langue anglaise. Avant la fin du XIXème siècle, le télégraphe reliait toutes les nations industrialisées du monde et en particulier les états membres du Commonwealth. Et les câbles sous-marins avaient déjà été déployés dans le plupart des océans. |
