Radio is the technology of using radio waves to carry information, such as sound, by systematically modulating properties of electromagnetic energy waves transmitted through space, such as their amplitude, frequency, phase, or pulse width.[n 1] When radio waves strike an electrical conductor, the oscillating fields induce an alternating current in the conductor. The information in the waves can be extracted and transformed back into its original form.

Radio systems need a transmitter to modulate (change) some property of the energy produced to impress a signal on it, for example using amplitude modulation or angle modulation (which can be frequency modulation or phase modulation). Radio systems also need an antenna to convert electric currents into radio waves, and radio waves into an electric current. An antenna can be used for both transmitting and receiving. The electrical resonance of tuned circuits in radios allow individual frequencies to be selected. The electromagnetic wave is intercepted by a tuned receiving antenna. A radio receiver receives its input from an antenna and converts it into a form that is usable for the consumer, such as sound, pictures, digital data, measurement values, navigational positions, etc.[2] Radio frequencies occupy the range from a 3 kHz to 300 GHz, although commercially important uses of radio use only a small part of this spectrum.[3]

There are different types of modern mass-communication devices which we widely use in our daily lifestyle.

And radio is one of the most used mass communication devices by ourselves.

The characteristics of the radio are :

1) The radio is easily portable.

2) The radio produces only audio output.

3) The radio doesn't require any kind of subscription charges.

4) The radio is very cheap.

5) Nowadays the radio is implemented in the smartphones.

And many more.

For,the above mentioned characteristics the radio is one of the most popular mass communication mediums nowadays.
