Abstract:
A plasma Yagi antenna was designed based on the traditional theoretical analysis of Yagi antenna, S
11parameter is patterns were simulated by CST software. According to the simulation, we manufacture plasma Yagi antenna principle prototype and S
11parameter is measured by a vector network analyzer ,which is consistent with the simulation results .The results show that the plasma Yagi antenna has good directivity and high gain as the plasma density is high enough. The performance can be compared with the metal antenna.
