Electronics World (Wireless World, founded in 19131, and in October 1983 renamed Electronics & Wireless World ) is a technical magazine published by Datateam Business Media Ltd that covers electronics and RF engineering and is aimed at professional design engineers. It is produced monthly in print and digital formats. The editorial content of Electronics World covers the full range of electronics and RF industry activities including technology, systems, components, design, development tools, software, networking, communications tools and instrumentation. It encompasses a range of issues in the electronics and RF industry, from design through to product implementation. The features are contributed by engineers and academics in the electronics industry. The circulation is split between electronic design engineers, senior managers, and R&D professionals within areas such as communications, manufacturing, education and training, IT, medical, power, oil and gas.

Clarke (then of The British Interplanetary Society) published a now-famous article, "Extra Terrestrial Relays", which foresaw the coming of communications satellites in synchronous orbit around the Earth. Clarke pointed out that three satellites in the equatorial plane orbit at an altitude of 36,000 km, spaced 120 degrees apart, could provide global communications. The altitude is crucial as there a satellite rotates at the same angular velocity as the surface of the Earth, and therefore remains above a particular point on its surface that is, it is geostationary. The article is now seen as the origin of modern satellite communications, and the geostationary earth orbit is sometimes referred to as Clarke's Orbit. ==Online== The website contains a regular blog spot, whitepapers, webinars, a directory listing, guest forums, and events listings.
