INTRODUCTION
The new millennium has introduced increased pressure for finding new renewable energy sources Building a power station in space to transmit electricity to Earth by way of radio waves-the Solar Power Satellites. Microwave Wireless Power Transmission

WHY SPS?

Environmental problems due to fossil fuels. Overcome day & night effect and other factors such as clouds. Overcome energy crisis..

SPS THE BACKGROUND

Peter Glaser invented the concept of a large SPS. Fresh look Study, SSP Concept Definition Study. SSP Exploratory and Research Technology Program.

SPS- A GENERAL IDEA

It is located in the geosynchronous orbit.
Comparison between ordinary satellite.

Its operation.
About structure.

WIRELESS POWER TRANSMISSION

WPT system mainly three components are used.
In SPS different kind of WPT systems are used.

MICROWAVE POWERTRANSMISSION IN SPS

The conversion of direct power to microwave power. The collection of the microwave energy and its conversion into electrical energy at the earths surface. The key microwave components in a WPT system are the transmitter, beam control and rectenna.

MPT-TRANSMETER
The key requirement of a transmitter is its ability to convert dc power to RF power efficiently and radiate the power to a controlled manner with low `loss.

MPT-BEAM CONTROL
Retro directive beam control systems have been the preferred method of achieving accurate beam pointing.
The SPS transmitter to provide a phase reference for forming and pointing the power beams. A key system and safety aspect of WPT in its ability to control the power beam.

MPT- RECTENNA

Rectennas are highly efficient at converting microwave energy to electricity. RF rectennas are used for several forms of wireless energy transfer

RECENTLY DEVELOPED MPT SYSTEMS

The Kyoto University developed a system called SPORTS.

Industrial companies of Japan , is an integrated unit called the Solar Power Radio Integrated Transmitter (SPRITZ),developed in 2000

MICROWAVES-ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES

The atmospheric studies indicate that these problems are not significant , at least for the chosen microwave frequency .

Specific research over the years has been directed towards effects on birds, in particular.

advantages
The power could be directed to any point on the earths surface.

No waste product .
No fuel required .

disadvantages
High cost and require much time for construction. Radiation hazards associated with the system. The entire structure is massive.

conclusion

The SPS will be a central attraction of space and energy technology in coming decades. .

It is not a pollutant but more aptly, a man made extension of the naturally generated electromagnetic spectrum that provides heat and light for our sustenance.
