transmitter or receiver. In transmission, a radio transmitter supplies an electric current to the antenna´s terminals, and the antenna radiates the energy from the current as electromagnetic waves (radio waves). In reception, an antenna intercepts some of the power of a radio wave in order to produce an electric current at its terminals, that is applied to a receiver to be amplified. Antennas are essential components of all radio equipment." - (en.wikipedia.org 29.10.2021)
