无线通信的定义(Chapter1,pp1)
Wireless communication: the transfer of information over a distance without the use of electrical conductors or "wires". （并非采用电导体或者电线在一定的距离上传递信息）The distances involved may be short (a few meters as in television remote control) or very long (thousands or even millions of kilometers for radio communications).（这个距离可短可长，短到几米，比如电视遥控器的遥控的距离，长到成千上万公里的无线通信。）
Wireless Communication relies on radio signals, including x-rays, ultraviolet light, the visible spectrum, infrared, microwaves, and radio waves, to transmit data.
无线通信就是采用电磁波作为载体来传递信息;
电磁波包括X射线、紫外线、可见光、红外线、微波等电波等组成
知识点光速与载频和波长关系式(Chapter1,pp22)：
