INTRODUCTION
• Solar Power Satellite (SPS) ?
• SPS is the wireless power transmission from the geostationary orbit to the ground.
•“Energy and environment”
•Global problem
•SOLAR POWER
•Concept of the SPS
• The time average power per unit area in space is 5-10 times larger than that on the ground.
Configuration of SPS
Various Types of SPS
MICROWAVE POWER TRANSMISSION FOR SPS
• Microwave frequency for SPS has been selected in a range of 1-10 GHz
• Compromising between antenna size and atmospheric attenuation.
• For the microwave generator, tubes such as magnetron, klystron, and TWT are proposed.
• Semiconductor amplifier- 60-70 % with low cost expectation.
• Power transmission
• Transmitting antenna-
beam angle 100 μrad ,
10 μrad pointing accuracy
number of array antenna panels
• Retro-directive technology
DEMONSTRATION OF MICROWAVE POWER TRANSMISSION TOWARDS SPS
• Japan to perform- First experiment in the world as a high-power and long-range microwave transmission
• Microwave transmitter- 4 panels
• Each panel, 0.6m x 0.6m
• Freq. of each panel is synchronized by a master oscillator
• Phase is adjusted by Rotating Element Electric Field Vector
Sequence of microwave transmission experiment in space
ADVANTAGES
• Power loss for wireless power transmission is expected less than 50%
• Average power per unit area in space is 5-10 times larger than that on the ground
• Will be a boon as we are running out of fossil fuels
CONCLUSION
• One of the most critical technologies for the SPS is microwave power transmission
• High efficiency
• extremely high-precise beam control with 10 μrad accuracy.
