Sometimes called an aerial, an antenna is an electronic device used to transmit data. It accomplishes this by converting electricity into electromagnetic, either micro or radio, waves. Antennas are used in many devices such as wireless routers, televisions, Bluetooth enabled devices, car stereos, two way radios, RFID (Radio Frequency IDentification) tags, and garage door openers.
