One of the most important technologies for the sps is the wireless power transmission from the geostationary orbit to the ground.
Wireless power transmission via solar power satellite ieee.
Wireless power transmission for solar power satellite sps second draft by n.
Abstract in this paper we present the concept of solar power satellites the solar cells in the satellite will convert sunlight to electricity which will changed to radio frequency energy then beamed to a receiver site on earth and reconverted to electricity by using transmitting and receiving antenna with the technology of wireless power transmission i e transmitting power as microwaves in order to reduce the transmission and distribution losses.
Theoretical background it is known that electromagnetic energy also associated with the propagation of the electromagnetic waves.
It has been believed as a promising infrastructure to resolve global environmental and energy problems for human beings.
The methods applied for wireless power transmission are also discussed.
We can use theoretically all electromagnetic waves for a wireless power transmission wpt.
The objective is to demonstrate the complete function of the solar power satellites with the primary issue being the validation of practical wireless power transmission.
In japan many kinds of the sps were proposed and designed in recent ten years.
Solar power satellite sps is an energy system which collects solar energy in space and transmits it to the ground.
The concept is to build a ground test installation that couples an existing 100 kw terrestrial solar cell array to a phased array wireless power transmitter based on a subarray.
Wireless power transmission technology via microwave microwave power transmission.
We will show the newest japanese sps and its characteristics.
