What is the difference between present day low-frequency wireless transmitters and Teslas system?
It is proposed that fundamentally identical electrical oscillators consisting of an RF current source, an elevated conductor and a robust ground connection can be configured in ways which are conducive to the production of two different types of surface wave. It is proposed that low frequency wireless communications can be accomplished by the production of either electromagnetic radiation in the form of space wave induced ground currents and an accompanying electromagnetic wave, or the generation of a pulsed magnetic field and production of ground currents at the transmitter resulting in an accompanying, poorly defined trapped surface-wave (see Zenneck surface wave).
