Tesla alleged that Marconi's radio patents infringed upon his own work on radio technology, and that Marconi's achievements were based on Tesla's ideas. Despite this claim, Tesla's arguments were not officially recognized by the courts, and Marconi is traditionally credited with the invention of the radio.

If you look, you will find that Marconi like Tesla stated, used some 17 patents belonging to Tesla. In 1943 the patent was given back to the original inventor Nikola Tesla. If your information doesn't mention this, you got the older information or one that lacks the truth.

There was a mysterious fire in his lab and so Marconi claimed the prize. Later on Tesla received the credit and the patent for the radio since Marconi used 17 of Tesla's patents to build his system. All that was proved in court.

Guglielmo Marconi, an Italian inventor, proved the feasibility of radio communication. He sent and received his first radio signal in Italy in 1895. By 1899 he flashed the first wireless signal across the English Channel and two years later received the letter "S", telegraphed from England to Newfoundland. This was the first successful transatlantic radiotelegraph message in 1902.
In addition to Marconi, two of his contemporaries Nikola Tesla and Nathan Stufflefield took out patents for wireless radio transmitters. Nikola Tesla is now credited with being the first person to patent radio technology; the Supreme Court overturned Marconi's patent in 1943 in favor of Tesla.
Marconi used some Tesla's patents to make his radio. Tesla replied, "Marconi is a good fellow. Let him continue. He is using seventeen of my patents."

In the "War of Currents" era in the late 1880s, George Westinghouse and Thomas Edison became adversaries due to Edison's promotion of direct current (DC) for electric power distribution over alternating current (AC) advocated by Westinghouse and Nikola Tesla.
Edison had major flaws in his DC machine. Tesla made it work right. Edison has the pattent. In few words looking back in time, research shows that Edison had his inventors working for him getting him the patents.
Edison never had ideas like Tesla had.

Many historians believe that Nikola Tesla should have received more credit for his work on wireless communication and radio technology than Guglielmo Marconi. Tesla's patents and innovations laid the foundation for modern radio technology, but Marconi was credited with its invention and received the Nobel Prize for it. Tesla did not receive the recognition he deserved during his lifetime for his contributions to this field.

Tesla wrote many autobiographical articles for the prominent journal Electrical Experimenter, collected in the book, My Inventions. Tesla was gifted with intense powers of visualization and exceptional memory from early youth on. He was able to fully construct, develop and perfect his inventions completely in his mind before committing them to paper.
The book Nikola Tesla (1856-1943) - Lectures, Patents, Articles, now out of print, is the first major reference work published by the Nikola Tesla Museum in Beograd about the inventor. The edition appeared in 1956 and the book was subsequently reprinted in 1991. It contains the text of four lectures delivered by Tesla during the period between 1888 and 1893 plus one delivered in absentia in 1898. As for patents, the book contains only those granted to Tesla in the United States; the compilers chose to include only 99 of the 112 patents actually issued to him. Additionally there are 17 scientific and technical articles written between 1891 and 1920, 7 articles of a general nature written between 1897 and 1917, and an autobiographical article from 1915.

Tesla is now credited with inventing modern radio as well; since the Supreme Court overturned Guglielmo Marconi's patent in 1943 in favor of Nikola Tesla's earlier patents. When an engineer once said to Tesla, "Looks as if Marconi got the jump on you" regarding Marconi's radio system, Tesla replied, "Marconi is a good fellow. Let him continue. He is using seventeen of my patents."
Edison hired Tesla to work for his Edison Machine Works. Tesla's work for Edison began with simple electrical engineering and quickly progressed to solving some of the company's most difficult problems. Tesla was even offered the task of completely redesigning the Edison company's direct current generators. Tesla claims he was offered US$50,00 if he redesigned Edison's inefficient motor and generators, making an improvement in both service and economy. In 1885 when Tesla inquired about the payment for his work, Edison replied, "Tesla, you don't understand our American humor," thus breaking his word. Earning US$18 per week, Tesla would have had to work for 53 years to earn the amount he was promised. The offer was equal to the initial capital of the company. Tesla immediately resigned when he was refused a raise to US$25 per week.
