- Gustave-Auguste Ferrié (November 19, 1868 - February 16, 1932) was a French radio pioneer and army general. Ferrié was born in Saint-Michel-de-Maurienne, Savoie. After graduating from the École Polytechnique, Paris, in 1891, he became an officer in the French army's Engineers Corps, specializing in its military telegraph service. After being named to a committee exploring wireless telegraphy between France and England, in 1899 he carried out such communications in collaboration with Guglielmo Marconi. In 1903 Ferrié invented a novel electrolytic detector, invented independently by Dr. Michael I. Pupin (1899), Professor Reginald A. Fessenden (1903), and W. Schloemilch (1903). That same year he also proposed setting antennas on the Eiffel Tower for long-range radiotelegraphy. Under his direction a transmitter was set up in the tower, and its effective range increased from an initial 400 km (250 miles) to 6,000 km (3,700 miles) by 1908. He then developed mobile transmitters for military units. Ferrié headed the French Radiotelegraphie Militaire before and during World War I, where in 1914 he led two linked advances in military radio communications: practical ground telegraphy made feasible by the adoption of vacuum tubes within radio receivers. The transmitter was a buzzer, and the receiver an amplifier with triode. By war's end the French had produced almost 10,000 such sets. Ferrié was made a General in 1919 and so remained until his death, having been exempted from retirement rules by a special law of 1930. Ferrié was named a Fellow of the Institute of Radio Engineers in 1917, and in 1931 received its Medal of Honor for "his pioneer work in the upbuilding of radio communication in France and in the world, his long continued leadership in the communication field, and his outstanding contributions to the organization of international cooperation in radio. " He received on honorary doctorate from Oxford University in 1919, and in 1922 became a member of the French Academy of Sciences. He was the first president of the French National Committee of Geodesy and Géophysique (1920-1926), president of the International Scientific Radio Union (U.R.S.I. ) and the International Commission on Longitudes by Radio, and vice president of the International Board of Scientific Unions. Ferrié died on February 16, 1932, at the Val-du-Grâce military hospital in Paris. Several hours after his death he was awarded the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor. Today the Espace Ferrié (Musée des Transmissions) continues his memory in Cesson-Sévigné.
- Gustave-Auguste Ferrié war ein französischer Elektrotechniker und General. Nachdem er 1891 an der École polytechnique graduiert hatte, ging er zur Armee und wurde Offizier. 1899 richtete er mit Guglielmo Marconi eine drahtlose Telegraphieverbindung zwischen England und Frankreich ein. 1903 erfand er (neben anderen) einen elektrolytischen Detektor. Seine Sendestation auf dem Eiffelturm konnte die Reichweite von 400 km bis 1908 auf 6000 km ausdehnen. Er entwickelte mobile Sender für das Militär. Während des Ersten Weltkriegs produzierte Frankreich 10.000 Sende- und Empfangs-Sets. 1919 wurde er zum General ernannt.
- Gustave Auguste Ferrié, né à Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne le 19 novembre 1868 et mort à Paris le 22 février 1932, est un ingénieur et général français, pionnier de la radiodiffusion. Il perfectionna la télégraphie sans fil (TSF), notamment en installant une antenne au sommet de la tour Eiffel. Né d’un père ingénieur dans les chemins de fer, il fait ses études à Draguignan pendant deux ans et, après avoir redoublé l'année de mathématiques élémentaires et reçu le prix Claude Gay, il obtient son baccalauréat en 1884. Admis à l'École polytechnique (promotion X1887), il devient ingénieur des transmissions radiophoniques. Pendant la Première Guerre mondiale, il développe la radiotélégraphie et devient ainsi l'un des artisans de la victoire de 1918. Il est élu membre de l'Académie des sciences en 1922. Grand-croix de la Légion d'honneur, il meurt à l'hôpital militaire du Val-de-Grâce à Paris en 1932. Un lycée professionnel dans le 10 arrondissement de Paris ainsi qu'un collège à Draguignan portent son nom. Une plaque commémorative en son honneur se trouve au pied de la tour Eiffel. Un prix « Général Ferrié » est remis à un chercheur dans le domaine des télécommunications. Le musée Ferrié (musée militaire), à Cesson-Sévigné, présente l'évolution des techniques de communication.
- Gustave-Auguste Ferrié was een Frans legerkapitein en pionier op het gebied van radiocommunicatie in Frankrijk.
