Wireless communication is the transfer of information over a distance without the use of electrical conductors or wires. The range of wireless services Radio spectrum is used for a wide range of services. These can be broken into the following broad classes: - Broadcasting services: including short wave, AM and FM radio as well as terrestrial television; - Mobile communications of voice and data: including maritime and aeronautical mobile for communications between ships, airplanes and land; land mobile for communications between a fixed base station and moving sites such as a taxi fleet and paging services, and mobile communications either between mobile users and a fixed network or between mobile users, such as mobile telephone .
