What Is An Antenna?

An antenna may be is also an electrical device/transducer that converts the radio-frequency(RF) fields into alternating current(AC) or vice versa. There are both receiving and transmission antennas for sending/receiving radio transmissions. Antennas play an important foreword in the operation of all radio equipment. They are used in wireless LAN(local area networks), mobile telephony, and satellite communication.
