Abstract:

This report discusses microwave engineering data relevant to assess the potential of the Satellite Power System (SPS) to cause microwave field enhancements (so called "hot spots") inside habitable structures (house, trailer, car, etc.) located in the fringe area of the receiving rectenna. Mitigative measures are included in the discussion.

Keywords: satellite power system (SPS); microwave
