What is Wireless transmission system?

A wireless transmission consists of at a minimum: input signal (the data or analog signal you wish to transmit), transmitter, 2 antennas, space (the final frontier) and a receiver/reproducer.

This only makes one way transmission possible. You would need an additional: transmitter, receiver/reproducer and 2 antenna couplers (allows both a transmitter and receiver to use the same antenna) to have 2 way communication.

A basic transmitter consists of a power source, a signal generator (oscillator), signal converter/amplifier, mixer (mixes the oscillator and amp signals to create the transmitted signal), output amplifier.

a receiver is similar to a transmitter except instead of mixing the signal with the oscillator signal it removes the oscillator signal. Systems can be much more complicated depending on power needs (distance between antennas, frequency interference...) and application (encoder/decoder, security or digital conversion).
