Zusammenfassung:A gas plasma antenna with a rigid, flexible, or semi-flexible substrate and an improved method of generating a uniform electron density. The antenna comprises a gas discharge device containing a multiplicity of microcavities, each microcavity containing an ionizable gas for providing a microdischarge. Each microdischarge acts alone or in concert with other microdischarges to form a dipole or pattern of dipoles.
