Vehicles have been equipped with antennas almost from the moment radio became a popular form of entertainment. While there are many types of antennas, they serve the same general purpose. That's to collect magnetic radio waves and transmit them to a receiver.
Types of Automotive Antennas
Once, it was easy to tell where your antenna was located. Typically, it was at the front of your vehicle, near the windshield. Some retracted manually, while others responded to electronic stimuli to disappear. Your vehicle may even have had separate antennas for your AM/FM stereo and your CB radio.
More recently, we've seen antennas incorporated into the glass. Not only does this help prevent against vandalism, but it also incorporates the defrosting conductor elements to help transmit signals.Just as the advent of satellite radio has expanded your listening options, it's also brought about a sea change in antenna technology. Old-school radio antennas operate much like a TV antenna That meant that as you traveled farther away from the source of the radio waves, the likelier you were to either encounter static or need to change frequencies. Satellite radios use digital frequencies, so your entertainment travels with you wherever you go.
