Abstract
Obtained dependencies demonstrate enough high value of effective antenna area for lens diameter up to 16m using the proposed antenna structures. As perspective materials we can consider solid and foam-dielectrics with filling (for example dusts of crystalline quartz). The successful search of acceptable materials will allow to reduce a focal length for a fixed effective antenna area or to increase effective antenna area with the same sizes of radio telescope.
