Parabolic Antenna
How a simple curved dish revolutionized global communication with pinpoint radio beams

Why must a parabolic antenna's reflector be much larger than the wavelength of the radio waves it handles?
To achieve a narrow beamwidth and high directivity by effectively focusing the radio waves.
Because larger reflectors are easier to manufacture regardless of wavelength.
To amplify the radio waves through the size of the reflector alone.
