Wireless power transmission for solar power satellite sps second draft by n.
Wireless power transmission via solar power satellite ieee.
Solar power satellite sps is an energy system which collects solar energy in space and transmits it to the ground.
We can use theoretically all electromagnetic waves for a wireless power transmission wpt.
Power will be transmitted over a 1 1 4 mile range to a receiving antenna and then fed into a commercial utility power grid.
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.
The methods applied for wireless power transmission are also discussed.
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.
Wireless power transmission technology via microwave microwave power transmission.
One of the most important technologies for the sps is the wireless power transmission from the geostationary orbit to the ground.
We will show the newest japanese sps and its characteristics.
It has been believed as a promising infrastructure to resolve global environmental and energy problems for human beings.
Mpt was advanced from 1960 s and many researchers which had a dream to realize the space solar power satellite station sps.
In japan many kinds of the sps were proposed and designed in recent ten years.
