Microwave Power Transmission
Microwave Power Transmission is a technology that uses microwaves to transfer energy wirelessly over long distances. This method involves converting electrical energy into microwave energy, which can then be beamed to a receiver that converts it back into electricity. It has potential applications in powering remote areas or even in space.
One of the key advantages of microwave power transmission is its ability to deliver energy without the need for physical cables, reducing infrastructure costs. However, challenges such as efficiency, safety, and environmental impact must be addressed for widespread adoption in applications like solar power satellites or wireless charging systems.
