The antenna will need to connect to your phone with a wire (that's what the
antenna connector is for on the back of your phone, if it has one). So, as
far as I know, there is no such thing as a "wireless antenna".
You can get also antenna couplers that work through things like plasic and
glass to a coupler on the other side. "Through glass" antennas, and some of
the newer car kit antennas work like this. However, the "gap" that they work
through can only be a few mm at most.
If you want to use an external antenna in your house, a cheap solution is to
buy a hard wired antenna for a car kit (not a through glass one as most
people have double glazing, and most house windows are vertical) and mount
this outside your house, then rig up a connector at the other end to connect
it to your phone. Often people use the cradle from a car kit for this.
Although you can lengthen the cable that comes with the aerial, this isn't a
good idea as you'll lose a lot of signal in the cable and the antenna is
most likely tuned for that length of cable.
Unless I'm missing something here... a "wireless antenna"?
