INTRODUCTION

• Communication started since the primitive time and can range from very subtle processes of exchange
to full conversation and mass communication.
• From all early forms of communications, humans have developed the transmission of messages through
signal over a distance.
• It began thousands of years ago using smoke signals and drums in Africa, America, and Asia.
• In 1790s, the first fixed semaphore systems emerged in Europe.
• In 1830s, electrical telecommunication systems started to appear.
EVOLUTION OF COMMUNICATION TIMELINE
• Prehistoric: Fires, Beacons, Smoke Signals,
Communication Drums, horns
• 6th Century BCE: Mail
• 5th Century BCE: Pigeon Post
• 4th Century BCE: Hydraulic Semaphores
• 15th Century CE: Maritime Semaphores
• 1672: First Experimental acoustic telephone
• 1790: Semaphore lines
• 1867: Signal lamps
• 1877: Acoustic phonograph
• 1838: Electrical telegraph
• 1858: First trans-Atlantic telegraph cable
• 1874: Principal of telephone was uncovered
• 1876: Telephone was invented by Alexander
Graham Bell who have beaten Elisha Gray by a
matter of hours
• 1877: The very first permanent outdoor
telephone wire was completed which could
stretch three miles.
EVOLUTION OF COMMUNICATION TIMELINE
• 1878: The workable exchange was developed, which
enabled calls to be switched between subscribers
rather than having direct lines
• 1879: Subscribers began to designate by numbers.
• 1880s: Long distance service expanded throughout
this period using metallic circuits.
• 1891: First automatic dialing system invented by a
Kansas City undertaker.
• 1896: First practical wiring telegraphy systems based
on radio.
• 1904: “French Phone” was developed by the Bell
Company.
• 1911: AT&T acquire the Western Union Telegraph Company
in a hostile takeover.
• 1914: First North American transcontinental telephone
calling
• 1921: The switching of large numbers of calls were made
possible using phantom circuits.
• 1930: First experimental videophones
• 1934: First commercial radio-telephone service in US and
Japan
• 1936: Research into electronic telephone exchanges began.
• 1946: Worlds first commercial mobile phone service was
put into operation.
EVOLUTION OF COMMUNICATION TIMELINE
• 1947: First working transistor was invented at Bell • 1988: Mobile satellite handheld phones
Laboratories.
• 1999: Napster peer-to-peer file sharing is launched.
• 1950: Beginning of the Semiconductor Era
• 2003: VoIP Internet Telephony; Skype video calling is launched
• 1955: The beginning of the laying transatlantic telephone
cables • 2004: Facebook is launched

• 1962: Telstar was launched • 2005: Youtube is launched

• 1964: Fiber optical telecommunications • 2006: Twitter is launched

• 1969: Computer Networking\ • 2007: iPhone is launched

• 1973: First modern-era mobile phone • 2009: Whatsapp is launched

• 1974: Internet • 2010: Instagram is launched

• 1979: Ship to shore satellite communications • 2011: Snapchat is launched

• 1982: SMTP email • 2015: Discord is launched

TYPES OF TELEPHONE
AND ITS PARTS
• Plain Old Telephone Service (Analog or PSTN):
Landline telephone system is a part of the plain old
telephone service. The analog service with copper
wiring that is the direct descendant of the original
telephone system by Alexander Graham Bell.
• Voice Over Internet Protocol: Voice Over Internet
Protocol is another type of telephone system that is
used in the 21st Century. This service piggy-backs on
existing Internet connections, either cable service or
DSL broadband. A device called an Analog Telephone
Adaptor is the go between that connects whatever
phone to have either the broadband modem or the
router. IP system can be set up with a single line for
both Internet and telephone service, which can save
money. With an integrated T1 line, it can handle both
voice and data. With Dynamic T1, the line is capable
of assigning bandwidth as needed, given the current
use.
