Greetings,
I have a doubt about "object of preposition" and "prepositional phrase", and I think they are the same.
Am I correct, please?
Thanks in advance,
Are "object of preposition" and "prepositional phrase" the same, please?

No!
A prepositional phrase is an entire phrase, e.g. 'in the garden', which contains a prepositional object (garden).
