The principle of the lens antenna is THE EQUALITY OF THE PATH LENGTH.
A simplified explanation is that the antenna does for radio waves what a lens does for light because of physics.
The power of the signal, as perceived by the receiver, will be lower with an omnidirectional antenna. This is because the omnidirectional antenna is transmitting in all directions, while the directional antenna is transmitting in only one direction.Think of the directional antenna as a lens, focusing proportionally more power in a smaller space.
A micro-strip antenna works on the principle of resonant cavity (short circuit walls on top and bottom, open circuit walls on the sides).A resonant cavity stores energy unlike transmission lines or wave guide which transmits electromagnetic energy from one part to another. A R.C is equivalent to LC device at low frequencies.
You can replace an XM radio antenna with a CB antenna, a ham 40-meter mobile antenna, a cellphone antenna, a GPS antenna, a TV antenna, a wire coat hanger, a 6 GHz microwave antenna, or a chain of paperclips. However, since none of them is optimized to operate at the frequencies of XM radio, like the XM antenna is, none of the others will work as well. Most of them will likely be so inefficient at the satellite radio frequencies that when you use one of those, you hear nothing at all on your radio.
an antenna that is able to be formed, or bent

The eqivalence principle is a principle that replaces the actual source i.e (antenna , transmitter) by eqivalent sources
Both use the principle of optics.

The blank you are referring to is the focal length of the lens. It is the distance from the center of the lens to its principal focus, where parallel rays of light converge after passing through the lens.
The Badal principle of the focimeter states that the effective focal length of a lens can be determined by placing the lens in the path of a collimated beam of light and adjusting its position until the image of a distant object is focused at a specific point. By using a movable lens system, the distance at which the image is formed can be measured, allowing for accurate calculations of the lens's focal length. This principle is particularly useful in optical testing and measurement applications.
VHF radios work by the line of sight principle
The micro-bug is a Cybertronian device used for covert spying. It consists of a small camera lens and an internal antenna capable of streaming
This depends on the type of lens. If it is a convex lens then they converge at the focus on the other side of the lens. If it is a concave lens, then they diverge and appear to be coming from the focus present on the same side of the lens as the incident ray.
VHF radios work by the line of sight principle
The principle of image formation in a compound microscope states that the second lens magnifies the image formed by the first lens. The use of two lenses enhances the magnification of the image.
