Abstract :
The results of research of internal and external characteristics of a microwave loop antenna produced on a basis of cold plasma of a gas discharge are presented. It is shown that frequency properties of the input impedance and radiation characteristics for the plasma antenna exceed the parameters of usual dipole loop antennas.
