Množina: aerials

Or antenna; In radio and television broadcasting, a conducting device that radiates or receives electromagnetic waves. The design of an aerial depends principally on the wavelength of the signal. Long waves (hundreds of meters in wavelength) may employ long wire aerials; short waves (several centimeters in wavelength) may employ rods and dipoles; microwaves may also use dipoles —often with reflectors arranged like a toast rack—or highly directional parabolic dish aerials. Because microwaves travel in straight lines, giving line-of-sight communication, microwave aerials are usually located at the tops of tall masts or towers.

In archeology, for example, aerial photography reveals surface features (such as crop marks, soil marks, shadow marks) that are not clearly visible from ground level and which indicate the presence of ancient features; crops will show differences in growth and color if they are growing over a buried wall foundation or other stone feature.
