The term plasma antenna has been applied to a wide variety of antenna concepts that incorporate some use of an ionized medium. In the vast majority of approaches, the plasma, or ionized volume, simply replaces a solid conductor. A highly ionized plasma is essentially a good conductor, and therefore plasma filaments can serve as transmission line elements for guiding waves, or antenna surfaces for radiation.

3. INTRODUCTION
An antenna is an electrical device which converts electric currents
into radio waves at transmitter and inverse of this operation at
receiver
A plasma antenna is a radio frequency (RF) antenna based on
plasma elements instead of metal conductors.
4. PLASMA ANTENNA
It is a tube type structure
In plasma antenna low Pressured Ionized Gasses are used
It based on Conductivity of Ionized Gasses
It Provide Electromagnetic Wave Radiation
6. ANTENNA PRINCIPLE
When voltage is applied to an antenna, electric field is
produced
It causes current to flow in antenna
Due to current flow, magnetic field is produced.
These two fields are emitted from an antenna and propagate
through space over very long distance
7. OPERATION OF PLASMA ANTENNA
In an ionized gas plasma antenna, a gas is ionized to create a
plasma.
Plasma state act as a driven element to radiate radio waves, or
to receive them.
Alternatively the plasma can be used as a reflector or a lens to
guide and focus radio waves from another source
8. • Solid-state antennas differ in that the plasma is created
from electrons generated by activating thousands of diodes on a
silicon chip.
9. CHARACTERISTICS
Gas ionizing process can manipulate resistance and when
deionized, the gas has infinite resistance and doesn't interact
with RF radiation.
Operates up to 90 GHz.
It use ionized gas as conducting material.
The gas is ionized only for the time of transmission or
reception.
11. LIMITATIONS
• It can not be used in mobile environment
• Plasma antennas are expensive and hard to manufacture.
Ionozer increases power consumption .
13. CONCLUSION
• Plasma antenna is requirment of morden day because it has
many advantages over traditional antenna as we discussed
today.
• This technology is not possible practically but in future it is
practically provided.
• It is more advantageous than other antenna due to ionized gas.
