No magic at play here. The equations are open for all to explore. We are not breaking the laws of physics. Just flexing them with clever engineering.. just like innovators that came before us. For example, the radiating…
You are correct. There's no magic at work here. We don't break the laws of physics, we just flex them with clever engineering... like most innovators that came before us.
You are right of course. Point taken. Thanks :)
The equations governing diffraction are relatively straight forward. We are operating within the near-field (or more accurately in the Frensel range). I'm sure you can do the math and see how focusing a phased array can…
Great question! in fact... so good that I cant answer it properly without divulging some of the secret source. Suffice to say that you are on to some of our more interesting IP ;)
No. we are beaming strictly point-to-point in the near field unlike WiFi, Bluetooth, RFIF, etc Unless of course we are beaming directly at a coms antenna, which we don't plan to :)
:)) no magic, just solid engineering. There will always be sidle-lobes. The question is how much and what do you do with it.
We use coherent beaming. The interval between relays largely depends on topographical, regulatory, and environmental conditions. In any case, all our systems are designed to be absolutely safe for any organic life form.…
Theoretically any distance is possible. Practically, we are limited by antenna size considerations. For example, we are currently looking at powering an island across a distance of 30km with an end-to-end efficiency of…
Rain has negligible affect on EM propagation in the frequencies we are operating in. See: http://gsp.humboldt.edu/OLM/Courses/GSP_216_Online/lesson2-1...
No "erratic blasting" intended :) this is NOT like a strong WiFi. We are using a strictly point to point collimated beam that is expected to meet nothing but clear air. It shuts down if/when any transient object is…
What are you basing your statement on? have you actually done the math?
End to end efficiency is absolutely critical for making any wireless power endeavour viable. Beyond delivery loss, don't forget that there are other CAPEX/OPEX considerations. For example, an underwater cable from an…
Hi, not sure how you came to the conclusion that "still require local storage or generation resources at the receiving end". the whole point is replacing those with a steady connection to the national grid. the only…
You could use a generator. You could also use a steam engine to power your car. But most of us prefer the cleaner, safer, more efficient solutions :) Wouldn't you agree that replacing fossil fuel based generators with a…
Typically 2.4 - 5.8GHz
Its in the article. ISM band. typically 2.4-5.8GHz. there are a number of safety measures. some based on a feedback loop, laser safety screen and others. cant go over all those details in a gimmicky article :))
relays are passive and require no power. quasi-optics.
search up beam forming, phased arrays, collimated beams and metamaterial based beam guides
This is NOT "incredibly dangerous". This is the sort of lazy internet commenting that doesn’t rely on actual research. There will always going to be sceptics. All we can do is rely on solid science and engineering and…
Reporters sometimes tend to pretend they are novelist and get many details wrong (to put it mildly) 70% efficiency is the current state of the art limit for solid state based Tx. we loose close to 0% in the atmosphere…
efficiency is not a function of distance when there is no lose in the atmosphere :) At the moment we are working with about 60% end to end efficiency
Coupling has nothing to do with Emrod tech. Its intrinsically limited to low power and small range. It is also has a much more significant impact on health and safty.
A number of studies have been done over the years exploring wind, solar and other alternatives. Unfortunately, they aren't perfect. non, including the two turbine solution, comes even close to providing the energy…
Power density of direct heat exchange engines exceeds anything chemical rockets have to offer us at this stage. Beaming about 80MW would help get rid of the first stage of a rocket which represents about 80% of carried…
