[http://inventors.about.com/od/rstartinventions/a/radio.htm inventors.about.com Marconi]</ref> Meanwhile during the 1900's Lee Deforest invented the space telegraphy.He combined the triode amplifier and the Audion with John Ambrose Flemings diode valve to detect electromagnetic radiation. He was successful in amplifying the radio frequency signal picked up by the antenna before application to the receiver. His work led to the invention of amplitude-modulated (AM) radio. This developments paved the way to the establishment of the '''Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE)''' in 1912. The Institute focused on the development and enhancement of the radio industry profession, products and services.<ref>[http://www.ieee.org/about/ieee_history.html#sect1 Establsihment of IRE]</ref>
