Radio broadcasting is the transmission of audio content to a dispersed audience through the medium of radio waves. This technology allows audio signals, which can include music, news, talk shows, and other forms of entertainment or information, to be sent from a radio station to a receiver (such as a radio or a smartphone) over a specified frequency.
Radio broadcasting can be divided into two main types: AM (Amplitude Modulation) and FM (Frequency Modulation), each having distinct technical characteristics and uses. AM radio is known for its long-range capabilities, making it suitable for talk radio and news, while FM radio offers better sound quality and is often used for music broadcasting.
