Response to “Comment on ‘A large volume uniform plasma generator for the experiments of electromagnetic wave propagation in plasma’” [Phys. Plasmas 23, 094701 (2016)]

We respond to the issues raised in the comment by Eliseev and Kudryavtsev [Phys. Plasmas 23, 094701 (2016)]. We re-examine the principle of plasma generation and the operating situations in our plasma device, and some simplified models are founded to illustrate the qualitative relations between the pressure and the magnitude and uniformity of ne. We stand by our original conclusions in our plasma device that the magnitude and uniformity of ne are in roughly reverse proportion to the gas pressure in the chamber, as observed in the experiment.
