System For Beaming Power From Earth To A High Altitude Platform

US Patent:
6407535, Jun 18, 2002
Filed:
Sep 8, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/657416
Inventors:
Herbert W. Friedman - Oakland CA
Terry J. Porter - Ridgecrest CA
Assignee:
The Regents of the University of California - Oakland CA
International Classification:
B64G 110
US Classification:
322 2R, 244 1 R
Abstract:
Power is transmitted to a high altitude platform by an array of diode pumped solid state lasers each operated at a single range of laser wavelengths outside of infrared and without using adaptive optics. Each laser produces a beam with a desired arrival spot size. An aircraft avoidance system uses a radar system for automatic control of the shutters of the lasers.

Methods And Apparatus For Beaming Power

US Patent:
6534705, Mar 18, 2003
Filed:
Jul 24, 2001
Appl. No.:
09/912775
Inventors:
Jesus Berrios - Daly City CA
Eric L. Cox - Burlingame CA
Terry J. Porter - Ridgecrest CA
Assignee:
Power Beaming Corporation - Burlingame CA
International Classification:
H01L 31042
US Classification:
136292, 136244, 136291, 244173, 244 1 R, 323906, 323221, 322 2 R
Abstract:
Methods and apparatus for beaming power from one location to another are provided. Energy is used to power one or more lasers to provide a coherent, wide-aperture beam, which is directed to the receiving platform. Photovoltaic cells on the receiving platform convert energy of the laser beam into electrical energy. Receiving platforms are provided that take advantage of the higher energy density in the laser beam.
