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