What is antenna transmitter and receiver?

Transmission antennas produce radiofrequency radiation that propagate in space. Receiving antennas perform the reverse process: they receive radiofrequency radiation and convert them into the required signals (e,g. sound, picture) in the receiving device (e.g., radio, television, mobile phone).

Can you transmit and receive on the same antenna?

Simultaneous Transmit and Receive (STAR) antennas are capable of sending and receiving a signal at the same time on the same frequency and can double communication data rates in wireless point-to-point communications.

How does an antenna works with transmitter?

In order for a transmitter to send a signal through an antenna, an electrical current must be sent through the antenna and generate a magnetic field. Instead of simply sending out a signal at a particular frequency, the antenna sends out signals that have either their frequency or amplitude modulated.

What is the difference between transmitter and receiver?

A transmitter is a necessary component of all electronic devices such as cell phones, television stations, ships etc. They are also used for navigation purposes. Receiver is an electronic device that receives signals and radio waves that are transmitted by the transmitter.
