My definition is one that is strong enough to drive your FM front end into full quieting, on all desired stations, with a signal free of multipath additions caused by reflections.
Noting that no tuner made can eliminate multi-path.
By definition there are only two indoor FM antennas that can guarantee that are a Moxon or way better a wire rhombic. The Moxon can be pointed, but hasn't anywhere near the gain of a rhombic, but more gain than the folded dipole from Crane.
Powered indoor antennas usually add noise.
