You should read about Nikola Tesla. He was one of the greatest scientists of all time, and well ahead of others of his day. He invented the radio. Some people are claiming he got the patent for his written work and that he didn't build a fuctional radio. This is not accurate. Nikola Tesla did build a radio and showed it's power which to the world.
There is the Marconi incident which were when he got the patent. Marconi got that using some 17 patents registered by Nikola Tesla.

Yes. They confirmed his invention after his death.
The main purpose was transatlantic communications.
Guglielmo Marconi is usually credited with the development of radio, not Tesla. Tesla is more known for patenting an AC induction motor, which became the basis for many electrical applications. Tesla experimented with wireless power transmission, seeking to compete with existing radio communication.
