Antennae (sg.: antenna), sometimes referred to as "feelers", are paired appendages used for sensing in arthropods. Antennae are connected to the first one or two segments of the arthropod head. They vary widely in form but are always made of one or more jointed segments.
Antenna (radio), also known as an aerial, a transducer designed to transmit or receive electromagnetic (e.g., TV or radio) waves Antenna types, a list of the many different types of radio and microwave antennas
A fractal antenna is an antenna that uses a fractal, self-similar design to maximize the effective length, or increase the perimeter (on inside sections or the outer structure), of material that can receive or transmit electromagnetic radiation within a given total surface area or volume.
The light-harvesting complex (or antenna complex; LH or LHC) is an array of protein and chlorophyll molecules embedded in the thylakoid membrane of plants and cyanobacteria, which transfer light energy to one chlorophyll a molecule at the reaction center of a photosystem. The antenna pigments are predominantly chlorophyll b, xanthophylls, and ...
For now, this would seem to clearly fit into a Wikipedia article on the use of the term antenna within the biological sciences (thus, the current article title: Antenna (biology)). If others think this usage should fit elsewhere, please discuss, or go for it. N2e 18:29, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
A spiral antenna is a type of radio frequency antenna shaped as a spiral, [1]: 14‑2 first described in 1956. [2] Archimedean spiral antennas are the most popular, while logarithmic spiral antennas are independent of frequency: [3] the driving point impedance, radiation pattern and polarization of such antennas remain unchanged over a large bandwidth.

The Channel Master Ultra Mini Antenna Amplifier delivers solid performance, and can act as a hub for sending cable to TVs throughout the house. With four ports granting an extra 8 decibels of gain ...
Smart antennas (also known as adaptive array antennas, digital antenna arrays, multiple antennas and, recently, MIMO) are antenna arrays with smart signal processing algorithms used to identify spatial signal signatures such as the direction of arrival (DOA) of the signal, and use them to calculate beamforming vectors which are used to track and locate the antenna beam on the mobile/target.
