ELF Plasma Antenna

Abstract

This effort is intended to stimulate further research and development of an extremely low frequency (ELF) plasma antenna. The study explores the advantages of a transmitting ELF plasma antenna for submarine applications and draws comparisons between this antenna and those currently in use. Three promising designs are discussed, and mathematical models used in this study are presented.
