Item description from seller

1906 ; in-8 (215 x 138 mm), pp. 468-474, 4 fig. dans le texte, couverture verte imprimée, petite étiquette de classement sur le plat supérieur (avec l'inscription B-230) sans autre marque ou ex-libris, très bon état. Edition originale. Tirage à part très rare. Camille Tissot (1868-1917), officier de marine français, professeur à l'Ecole Navale, fut un précurseur de la télégraphie sans fil. Il expose ici les résultats de ses expériences, similaires à celles menées indépendamment par Duddell et Taylor. Il montre que l'intensité reçue est inversement proportionnelle à la distance (loi de Duddell et Taylor, Duddell-Taylor-Tissot law or formula). Cf. J.E. Murray, A Handbook of Wireless Telegraphy, p.124 : "Tissot's Bolometer Bridge. — Lieutenant C. Tissot, of the French Navy, has devised a kind of bolometer for use in the measurement of the received current in wireless telegraphy, and has made many useful measurements by its means." ; C.P. Yeang, Characterizing radio channels: the science and technology of propagation and interference, 1900-1935, p. 68 : "William Duddell and J.E. Taylor in Britain and Camille Tissot in France had performed similar experiments in 1904 and 1906 respectively. Working within a 50-mile range, they had discovered that antenna current was inversely proportional to distance.".
