Wireless communication transmits information, data, and signals across a spatial expanse without physical wired connections. The transmission of information is facilitated through the utilization of electromagnetic waves, which propagate through several mediums, including the air. The paper mainly examines the development process, the significant impact of wireless communication on individuals, the fundamental operating principles of wireless communication, and wide-used techniques and their applications in wireless communication. However, we also acknowledge the shortcomings and constraints of the existing wireless communication systems, and we are confronted with the challenge of identifying a viable approach to implement an improved and more comprehensive version of it. Luckily, it is anticipated that the future of wireless communication will yield promising prospects and contribute to notable progress in diverse fields. In conclusion, it is evident that despite the existing challenges in current wireless communication techniques, there is optimism for a promising future. This is attributed to the anticipated emergence of expanded applications and further enhancements facilitated by the continuous advancement and refinement of wireless communication techniques.
