Abstract:
Recently the new type of plasma antenna shows explosive increment in the antenna
development which demands the new elements, the new designs and wide band of
resonance frequency in microwave range. Hence, a new approach solution such as the
small radius capillary tube with specific gas pressure and the line array pattern emerged
to fulfill the requirement of plasma antenna especially wide band microwave range.
Some designs of capillary tube with different radius such as 2.0 mm, 4.0 mm, 6.0 mm,
8.0 mm and 10.0 mm that contained the mixture mercury-argon gas pressures, 10 Torr
and 20 Torr are created by using CST Microwave Studio.
