ANGELS DON‘T PLAY THIS HAARP Advances in Tesla Technology

Background
The concept of microwave power transmission has been examined for a very long
time both in theory and in the laboratory. To date there have been no commercial
implementations of microwave power transmission beyond feasibility study. The
most promising application for microwave power transmission is a solar power
satellite. A very large solar array at geosynchronous orbit converts solar energy to
electrical energy which is transmitted as microwaves to an Earth station. At the
Earth station rectennas convert the microwave energy to direct current which can
be either converted to alternating current for direct distribution through a power
grid, or can be used to split hydrogen from water. The hydrogen is then liquefied
and transported to wherever needed. Another application that is being studied a
great deal worldwide concerns aerosats. An aerosat provides the same services as a
satellite, remote sensing, communications, etc., however the aerosat remains
within the Earth's atmosphere. The aerosat can be either a fixed wing craft in a
stationary flight pattern, or a rotary wing craft at hover. Microwave power
transmission has been proposed as a means to provide a continuous power source
to the aerosat. Canada has successfully flown a prototype fixed wing microwave
powered aerosat as part of their SHARP study.
SABER is intended to promote public interest and understanding concerning
microwave power transmission. SABER will also fulfill a more tangible role as it is
the culmination of a three part study of which the first two portions were
completed over twenty years ago under the direction of Mr. William C. Brown,
formerly of Raytheon. The first study, completed in 1965, concerned a rotary wing
supported platform guided by tethers [1]. The platform obtained all of its power
from an incident 2.45 GHz beam, converted to DC via a rectenna array. The second
study, completed in 1968, also concerned a rotary wing supported platform. In the
second study the platform was guided by an on board controller which was fully
autonomous. Power was supplied to the platform through an umbilical cord. The
unique point to the study was that the controller obtained information about five
out of six degrees of freedom from sensors placed in an incident 10 GHz beam. The
sixth variable was the height of the platform, and that was externally controlled by
a human operator. A third study was envisioned in which elements from the first
two studies would be combined to build a rotary wing supported platform which
derived all of its power, its attitude, and its position from an incident 2.45 GHz
beam utilizing an autonomous controller. The height of the platform would be
directed by an external human operator. The third study was never conducted. Mr.
Brown has spent the last twenty years determined to complete the third study, and
SABER will realize that goal.
Overview
Figure 1 is a block diagram for SABER indicating the flow of energy through the
system from AC input to the output thrust from the rotor blades. AC energy is
converted to DC energy and supplied to a magnetron by a controlled current
source. The magnetron converts the DC energy into microwave energy at 2.45
GHz. The microwave energy is then radiated from the slotted waveguide array
(SWGA) in a tight beam. A portion of the microwave beam is intercepted by a
rectenna array. The rectenna array converts the microwave energy back into DC
energy that is used by the rotary winged platform (helicopter) to provide control
and support, enabling the platform to stay aloft indefinitely.
