  • Abstract
    Gaseous plasma antenna arrays (PAA) constitute a promising alternative to conventional metallic antennas for applications in which fast reconfigurability with respect to some property (e.g., the gain, the frequency band) is desired. In STARLET (plaSma anTennA foR satelLitE navigaTion) project, reconfigurable capabilities of plasma antennas will be exploited in the design and development of a PAA for the reception of GPS and Galileo satellite signals. Here we give an account of the prelimary numerical results gathered so far.
