Nikola
Tesla (1856-1943) Tesla
was the Inventor and patent holder of the
AC 60 cycle Generator, for the production
of electrical power for Niagara Falls and
later used for transmitting spark EMW
signals for Wireless Telegraphy and
Telephony, Tesla, Westinghouse AC
Generator patent just expired in 1906.

NIKOLA
TESLA WAS BORN on
July 10, 1856 in
Smiljan, Croatia, then part of the
Austro-Hungarian military
frontier
to Milutin Tesla, a local priest of
the Orthodox Church, and his wife Djuka
and was christened by
the Serb orthodox priest, Toma Oklobdija.
He was the
second son, and was one of five
children, having
one brother and three sisters.
Tesla was said to be
born "at the stroke of midnight" with
lightning striking during a summer
storm. At the
moment of his birth, the midwife
commented, "He'll be a child of the
storm," to which his mother replied, "No,
of light." Tesla was baptized in the
Old Slavoni Church rite.
His Baptism Certificate
reports that he was born on June 28
(Julian calendar; July 10 in the Gregorian
calendar), and christened by the Serb
orthodox priest, Toma Oklobd'ija. It is
interesting to note that he was a Serbian
of Valachian descent.
An ethnic Serb, born in Smiljan, Croatia,
then part of the Austro-Hungarian military
frontier, and later residing in the
U.S.,
Tesla's legacy
can be seen across modern civilization
wherever a land-line high-voltage
electricity utility is connected to a home
or office to power your radio, television
or other ancillary devices plugged into
wall sockets.
Aside from his
work on electric motors that generate
high-voltage currents, Tesla is said to
have contributed in varying degrees to the
fields of robotics, ballistics, computer
science, nuclear physics, theoretical
physics, electromagnetism and dam
building.
The Tesla AC
Generator - motor, induction coil
high-voltage
concept was
first used by the Westinghouse Electric
Company to install the electrical power
turbines in the 1886, Niagara Falls River
Dam Project.
The "Tesla Coil" device is the coil
device that transformed the electrical
power generated by
the Dam's turbine motors being spun
by the hydro water tunnels flowing into
the dam. The
"Tesla Coil" device is a transformer with
an air core that has both its primary and
secondary tuned in resonance.
The induction coils had the ability
to convert high-voltage
electricity into usable AC current that
could be flowed through copper land-lines
from Niagara Falls to light-up Buffalo,
New York, 28 miles away.
Steam or
gasoline engines were substituted to power
the Tesla AC generators in cities not
serviced by dams, or the old mill
stream, - Continue

from above -Believe
it or not, in the days of Tesla, before
wireless telephony was renamed "Radio,"
the word "phony" -- bothered everyone in
the wireless, especially those in the
motor - electric generator industry like
Tesla, Edison and
Westinghouse.
According to the
Tesla Yes90 TimeLine:
from
1862 to
1866 - Tesla
attended elementary school in Smiljan and
Gospic. After that he attends junior high
school in
Gospic
from 1866 to
1870.
From
1871 to
1874, Tesla attends high school in
Carlstadt, modernday Karlovac.
After graduating, he attends
Polytechnic School at Graz -
1875-1878.It was here in his second year during
a lecture on electrical engineering given
by professor Poeschl, Tesla witnessed a
demonstration of a dynamo operating as a
motor. It was
then that Tesla, for the first time, had
an idea of an alternating current motor
without commutators and
brushes.
In
the 1870s, only the electrical
communication system was the mechanical
wired telephony, telegraphy. There were no
packets of instant cocoa laying around,
where all Tesla had to do was add hot
water, turn the electric switch on and
poof . . . But as
the story goes, after the motor
demonstration, - - his basic innate senses
intensified beyond any normal human
capacity -- it was like he had an extra
sence, "the Sixth Sense." He could
communicate
with still life objects like, motors and
antennas.
He could
sense the mechanics of the motor as
the coils rotated in
his minds eye, the same way as a bat can
see in the dark. It was a period in which
Tesla claimed he could imitate anything he
had learned as a youth, or ever seen or
heard from his professors.
Tesla found his first job after
graduation, was working as an assistant
engineer in a technical firm in
Maribor.
One year later - 1880 -
Tesla found to his
delight that he could create things in his
mind, picturing them as the finished
product without models, drawings or
experiments. In his minds eye, he invented
such things as a low friction finless
waterwheel and a motor driven by June
bugs.
A
year later, 1881 - Tesla moved
to Budapest working as an engineer with
the Central Telegraph Office.
His ability to
imitated anything and everything was so
keenly tuned in to telegraphy, that a
word, thought or drawing relating to the
operations of telegraphy would become a
living image that he could feel, see . . .
then patent, if he had the chance.
It didn't take long before Tesla a
put a thought or two together from the
past and present. You remember the
1878lecture and demonstration of a
dynamo operating as a motor, don't you?.
Well Tesla's most
famous idea; the rotating magnetic field
and alternating current induction motor
without commutators and brushes,
will soon became
reality. In
1882 - Tesla accepts a job with
Continental Edison Company, in Paris. He
attracts attention with the addition of
his voltage regulator to existing Edison's
dynamo-electric
machines. A year
later, Tesla was sent on an assignment by
Edison, to Strassburg, France. It is here,
in 1883, Tesla, now 27 years old,
builds the worlds first AC
generator/motor. Tesla,
Edison, and Westinghouse Years - The
following year, he sails to America
As for 1884,
radio, television, the Internet,
WiFi, and the terms antenna, radio AC
alternators, and Radio Shack, the words
and entity didn't exist when Tesla,
Stubblefield and Marconi, the big three of
the Smart-Daaf Boy focused on advancing
the Electromagnetic Wave, EMW, into
space.
Tesla's major
competitors were Marconi, Fessenden,
Alexanderson, Armstrong. Edison and GE
contended that it was an illusionary dream
of Tesla's financial backers that Tesla
could transmit high-voltage
through space
to light-up country towns.
Did Tesla
personally transmit the Wireless Telephony
and Telegraphy Morse Code through space
before Marconi, Stubblefield or Fessenden?
No, but others did by purchasing one of
his AC generators, or plugging their radio
transmitter into a hot wired wall
socket..
As the
Stubblefield, Tesla friendship grew,
Stubblefield named his son William Tesla
Stubblefield, born, May 7, 1905.
-
In 1947, the United
States Supreme Court credited him as being
the inventor of the radio. Never putting
much focus on his finances, Tesla died
impoverished and forgotten at the age of
86.
In fact, to make telephony talk in
a big way, using AC - DC - generators,
Induction Coils and cell batteries, it
took each of the two Smart-Daaf Boys,
Tesla and Stubblefield, approximately
eighteen years to be granted U.S. patent
for their first respective coil devices to
harness RF electricity related to Wireless
Telegraph and Wireless Telephone.
For Tesla, his contribution to both
land-line and wireless EMW signals started
in 1886 with his contributions
Commutator For
Dynamo-Electric Machines, Electric-Arc
Lamp. Then he switched his attentions to
his EMW patents he named: Regulator For
Dynamo-Electric Machines, Electro-Magnetic
Motor, System Of Electrical
Distribution,
Art of Transmitting Electrical Energy
Through the Natural Mediums", "Method of
Signaling", "System of
Signaling."
Nikola Tesla most famous invention
was in 1896. The patent was granted in
1900. The patent described the induction
coil device that transformed electrical
power generated from turbine motors into
AC, which helped copper land-lines
transmit electricity from Niagara Falls to
Buffalo, New York. The "Tesla Coil" device
is a transformer with an air core that has
both its primary and secondary tuned in
resonance.
As for Stubblefield's public
demonstrations in 1892, and his 1898 basic
EMW grounded electrolytic patent. As for
Marconi, and his efforts to get an
all-in-one patent for his Wireless
Telegraphy system, he was locked out by
all nations.
It was Stubblefield's 1907
All-in-one articular voice / music and
signal transmission patent, that separated
the other Smart-Daaf Boys' wireless
telegraphy, AC generators, alternators and
tube element patents from Stubblefield's,
especially those ancillary patents that
were granted without the words, "Wireless
Telegraphy," "Wireless Telephony" or
"Radio" denoted on the face page of their
patent.CLICK

It took 100 years after the
Stubblefield Wireless Telephone
patent was filed, before the first group
of Wireless Telephone frequencies
were sold by the FCC for over $30-billions
of dollars.

REPORT
In the course of Marconi's
subsequent works to make his
own spark gap telegraphy system
operate, he, at times,
acquired the essential telegraphic and
telephony ancillary licenses from
others.
Tesla is regarded as one of the most
important inventors in the Science of
Electricity and the Art of the
Electromagnetic Wave, both through copper
wire and space. He is also well known for
his contributions to the discipline of
electricity and magnetism in the late 19th
and early 20th century.
His patents and theoretical work form the
basis of modern alternating current
electric power (AC) systems, including the
polyphase power distribution systems and
the AC motor, with which he helped usher
in the Second Industrial Revolution.
Most of his related
1880 patents were in regards to Motor
generations. Through the 1890s to 1900 his
patents fillings pointed to keyword names
such as: Electrical
Ignitor for Gas Engines, System of
Transmission of Electrical Energy using
grounded induction coils.
"Apparatus for Utilizing Effects
Transmitted" from a Distance to a
Receiving Device Through Natural
Media"
Though
a few of these patented methods were
spectacular lightning
striking forces that could shoot through
space, like a summer
storm,
the EMW was not the kind of RF that could
send a voice signal, for the reason the
spark was so intensifying it would destroy
a normal wireless voice receiver. Thus his
system of Transmission of Electrical
Energy was for destruction. His
most interesting patent was his Method of
and Apparatus for Controlling Mechanism of
Moving Vessels or Vehicles
In the United States,
Tesla's fame rivaled that of any other
inventor or scientist in history or
popular culture. After his demonstration
of wireless communication in 1893 and
after being the victor in the "War of
Currents", he was widely respected as
America's greatest electrical engineer.
Much of his early work
pioneered modern electrical engineering
and many of his discoveries were of ground
breaking importance.
In 1947, the United
States Supreme Court credited him as being
the inventor of the radio. Never putting
much focus on his finances, Tesla died
impoverished and forgotten at the age of
86.
Tesla was regarded as a
mad scientist and became noted for making
bizarre claims about possible scientific
developments. [1][2] Many
of his achievements have been used, with
some controversy, to support various
pseudosciences,
UFO theories, and New
Age occultism. Many contemporary admirers
of Tesla have deemed him the man who
invented the twentieth century. CLICK

Days
1856 To 1890 -
1856 - Nikola Tesla was born in
Smiljan, Croatia, then part of the
Austro-Hungarian military
frontier
on July 10 (in
the Gregorian
calendar),
June 28 (Julian
calendar; to Milutin Tesla, a
priest of the Orthodox Church, and his

1877- In his second year
at the Polytechnic School at Graz, at a
lecture on electrical engineering given by
professor Poeschl, Tesla witnessed a
demonstration of a dynamo operating as a
motor. It was then that Tesla, for the
first time, had an idea of an alternating
current motor, without commutators and
brushes.
1879 - Tesla's
first job, as an assistant engineer in a
technical firm in Maribor.
1880 - Tesla completes
his education at the University of
Prague.
1881 - Tesla moves to Budapest
working as an engineer with the Central
Telegraph Office in Budapest, invents a
device for telephone sound
amplification.
1882 - In February, in
Budapest, Tesla discovers a rotating
magnetic field and the multiphase currents
producing it.
1882 - Tesla moves to Paris and
takes up a job with Continental Edison
Company. He attracts attention with his
improvements of Edison's dynamo-electric
machines and his making of a voltage
regulator.
1883-1884
- On an assignment by Continental Edison
Company, Tesla goes to Strassburg to help
with the running-in of a new electric
power plant, damaged in a trial run.
1883
- In Strassburg, Tesla constructs his
first model of the induction motor.
1883 - Tesla builds his AC
generator/motor, the World's first in
1883. He was then 27 years old.
1883 - It is interesting to
note that in all the books referenced at
the end, Tesla is credited with inventing
the AC alternator/motor and the polyphase
system in 1883, but at the same time in
England, Sebastian de Ferranti was
inventing an alternator with a zig-zag
armature. By 1889 Ferranti was building
his major Deptford power station with 3
phase alternators and cables designed by
him. Tesla,
Edison, and Westinghouse Years
1884 -
Tesla
sails for New York.
1884-1885
- Upon his arrival in the United States,
Tesla becomes Edison's associate, offering
him his diligence and abilities.
However, he
fails to get Edison interested in his
induction motor and other inventions in
the field of polyphase alternating
currents so that, after only a year, these
two great men part company, and after
Edison refused to give him his promised
sum.
1885 - Tesla
eventually found himself digging ditches
for a short period of time -- ironically
for the Edison company. Tesla focuses
intently on his AC polyphase system, even
while digging ditches
1885 -
Tesla sells his patent rights
for a polyphase system of
alternating-current dynamos to George
Westinghouse, Edison's biggest business
rival. Editor's Note: The FCC states he
sold said patent rights in 1985, not 1988
as mentioned in other sources.
1886 - Backed by a number of
financiers and technicians, Tesla
establishes Tesla establishes his Tesla
Electric Light and Manufacturing Company
in New York. He invents a system of direct
current electric-arc lamps and generators
with the third brush. He applies to the
U.S. Patent Office for and is issued the
first seven patents for his
inventions.
1886 - Tesla Electric Light and
Manufacturing Company applies his
electric-arc lamp patents for lighting the
streets of NewYork and other
cities.

as a common laborer from 1886 to 1887 to
feed himself and raise capital for his
next project. Induction
Motors
1887 - On October 12, Tesla
applies for two patents covering his non
synchronizing motor and electric
transmission of power.
1887 - On November 30, Tesla
applies for three patents covering the
first polyphase non synchronizing motors
with a short-circuited rotor and the rotor
with windings, rings and brushes, as well
as for electric energy transmission by
means of this type of motors.
1887 - On December 23, Tesla
applies for two patents, the last from
this series, covering multiphase current
transformers and their application in
electric energy
distribution.
1887 - In April of 1887, Tesla begains
investigating what would later be called
X-rays using his own single node vacuum
tubes (similar to his patent 514170). This
device differed from other early X-ray
tubes in that they had no target
electrode. The modern term for the
phenomenon produced by this device is
bremsstrahlung (or braking radiation).
By 1892, Tesla became aware of what
Wilhelm Röntgen later identified as
effects of X-rays.

1888 -
He was granted 30 patents including
his AC motor on May 1, 1888. Tesla
developed the principles of his Tesla coil
and began working with the famous
inventor and manufacturer, George
Westinghouse at Westinghouse Electric
& Manufacturing Company's Pittsburgh
labs. Westinghouse who was so keen
on Tesla's polyphase system
which would allow transmission of
alternating current electricity over large
distances, that he offered him
million dollars for all his patents.
1888 -
The opportunity was too good to
miss and Tesla accepted with the provision
of a royalty of one dollar per horsepower
to be included in the contract. He only
received half the money, since his
business associates took the other half.
Part of the deal was that Tesla should
work as a consultant for one year for
Westinghouse at his Pittsburgh factory, a
task which he did fulfill, but falling out
with Westinghouse's assistant over the use
of high or low frequency. At that time
Tesla was keen on 60 cycles AC.
Westinghouse tried to get him to stay,
offering him a fantastic salary and even a
laboratory thrown in, but Tesla threw
these offers to the wind. He was
determined to go it alone.
1888 - Tesla continually seemed
so keen to show his worth without being
able to make satisfactory employment
contracts to protect himself from being
used. This characteristic haunted him
throughout his life. He was a bit of loner
and did not get on well with colleagues,
regularly falling out with them and not
finding a suitable compromise or even
taking charge of the situation
particularly from a commercial point of
view.
1888 - On May 16, 1888, Tesla
delivers an invited lecture, "A new system
of alternate current motors and
transformers", before the American
Institute of Electrical Engineers
(now
IEEE) in New
York.
1888 - In June 1888, Tesla
sells his patent rights for a polyphase
system of alternating-current dynamos to
George Westinghouse, Edison's biggest
business rival.
Editor's Note:
The FCC states he sold said patent rights
in 1985.

MAXWELL'S
ETHER THEORY DIES - November, 13,
1931. The one-hundredth anniversary of
Clerk Maxwell's birth was marked by the
scientific world "digging a grave for the
theory of a luminiferous ether," but at
the same time honoring Maxwell's
mathematical genius.
