Sir Oliver Joseph Lodge (12 June 1851 – 22 August 1940) was an English physicist and electrical engineer whose investigations into electromagnetic radiation (EMR) contributed to the development of radio. He identified EMR independent of Heinrich Hertz's proof. In his 1894 Royal Institution lecture, The Work of Hertz and Some of His Successors, Lodge's demonstrations on methods to transmit and detect radio waves included an improved early radio receiver he named the coherer. His work led to him holding key patents in early radio communication, his "syntonic" (or tuning) patents.
Lodge became Assistant Professor of Applied Mathematics at Bedford College, London, in 1879, was appointed Professor of Physics at University College Liverpool in 1881, and served as Principal of the University of Birmingham from 1900 to 1919.
