INTRODUCTION:
A space power satellite orbiting the earth traps solar energy & generates electric power. Microwave beam& Rectenna are the main parts of the s.p.s By using these we can supply 24 hrs without discontinue It is renewable source of energy In future conventional power sources meet countinty power demand
S.P.S is a gigantic satellite orbiting in the Geostationary Earth Orbit(GEO) Solar collector may be either P.V.cell or a solar thermal turbine Comparing with ground solar density, the input power is 30% more Microwave tubes are two types. a)microwave tube magnetron b)semiconductor amplifier Microwave tubes are light more in weight(Kg/kw) because of generating high power m.w.
RECTENNA:
RECTifying anTEENA rectifies microwaves It is made up of Schottky barrier diode Forward voltage=0.6v,Trr=1.1v It working scope may reach 20 GHz S.P.S2000 transmits 2.45GHz to the rectenna
S.P 2000: .S
SPACETENNA:
ADVANTAGES:
Solar power satellites - economical, clean power for use on Earth Solar System Exploration - colonization and full development of the moon, Mars and Earth orbit Continuity Of Supply High Efficiency Unlike Terrestrial
PROBLEMS ENCOUNTERED:
COST- HIGH INITIAL COST
CONCLUSION:
By USING RECTENNA IN S.P.S WE GET CONTINUOUS SUPPLY IN 365 DAYS, BY USING NON CONVENTIONAL ENERGY RESOURCES
