Abstract
Plasma antenna is an emerging technology that utilizes ionized gas as a conducting medium instead of metal. It is often convenient to represent the input impedance of the antenna by a lumped-element-equivalent circuit. Input impedance of the plasma dipole antenna is deduced using finite integration technique. A five-lumped-element equivalent circuit for the plasma dipole antenna variation with plasma frequency is investigated and optimized using the genetic algorithm (GA). The effect of plasma frequency and collision frequency of the ionized gas on input impedance variations of the plasma dipole antenna is studied with the help of the equivalent circuit model. Another equivalent circuit is synthesized using a rational function and GA. The Cauer realization method is used to deduce a new lumped-element equivalent circuit.
