The patterns on the antenna vary for different car models.

Directly connected antennae belong to the Television Module (TVM) (three for the S60, V60 and XC60, four for the S80, V70, XC70, V40 and V40 Cross Country). These antennae are connected to the TVM via antenna amplifiers.
The antennae are in the rear window, rear side windows or the spoiler. When the antenna is in the rear window, three or four antennae can be in the same window. In the side windows, one or two antennae can be in each window. For the XC60 there is one antenna in the spoiler. There are diagnostics for the antennae.
