Plasma antenna represents a completely new technology that used plasma elements instead of metal ones. This paper presents some of the experimental and theoretical results achieved in the plasma antenna research developed in our laboratories, in particular we developed a self-consistent model able to describe the ionization of a plasma due to the propagation of an electromagnetic wave.
