Terrestrial Microwave Power Beaming [PDF]
This paper establishes the practicality of terrestrial microwave power beaming at distances >1 km. To beam microwave power along the surface of the earth, it is necessary to consider and, where possible, exploit the effects of microwave propagation ...

Microwave and Millimeter Wave Power Beaming
Power beaming is the efficient point-to-point transfer of electrical energy across free space by a directive electromagnetic beam. This paper clarifies the basic principles of power beaming in simple terms, and proposes a benchmarking methodology for ...

Beaming power: Photovoltaic laser power converters for power-by-light
Photovoltaic laser power converters (PVLPCs) are the core element of power-by-light (PBL) systems, which are basically made up of a power laser, an optical fiber, and a PVLPC. PBL allows the safe transfer of power in situations where the direct use of electrical energy to power electronic equipment is either not possible or not recommendable. The first

Power Beaming Providing a Space Power Infrastructure [PDF]
<div class="htmlview paragraph">This study, based on two levels of technology maturity, applies the power beaming concept to four planned satellite constellations. The analysis shows that with currently available technology, power beaming can provide mass savings to constellations in orbits ranging from low-Earth orbit to geosynchronous orbit ...
