A COMPUTER BASED INVESTIGATION OF WIRELESS POWER TRANSMISSION

Abstract

The world faces a serious energy problem.Two major aspects are.:(1)current practices are damaging to the environment of the earth ; (2)the provision of energy to the developing countries is inadequate for effective economic development. Providing clean , economical energy , is one of the most pressing challanges facing global society.The, unlimited: solar energy available in space suggests a solution to the basic needs of civilization. Capturing this energy in space and importing it to Earth to meet human needs offers a space based option which should be . pursued alongwith other options for a sustainable energy future. The global scale and the. technical, economic and environmental challanges of implementing space .solar power systems require international cooperation. The wireless power transmission (WPT) . is a new approach to collect solar , energy in space and then transmit it to Earth in microwave form.This approach overcomes the drawbacks of terrestrial capture - daily, seasonal, and cloud variations - at the expense of additional technology. WPT technology is used in SPS and LSP systems. In present investigation of WPT, emphasis is given on its technological status, possibilities ' with reference to presently available systems and its economic evaluation. From this investigation it is clear that lunar solar power is . safe, ecomomic and tremendous source of solar
