An interferometer based phase control system
An interferometer based phase control system for focusing and pointing the solar power satellite (SPS) power beam is discussed. The system is ground based and closed loop. One receiving antenna is required on Earth. A conventional uplink data channel transmits an 8 bit phase error correction back to the SPS for sequential calibration of each power module. Beam pointing resolution is better than 140 meters at the rectenna
OGY Control of Haken Like Systems on Different Poincare Sections
The Chua system, the Lorenz system, the Chen system and The L\"u system are
chaotic systems that their state space equations is very similar to Haken
system which is a nonlinear model of a optical slow-fast system. These
Haken-Like Sys-tems have very similar properties. All have two slow but
unstable eigenvalues and one fastest but stable eigenvalue. This lets that an
approximation of slow manifold be equivalent with unstable manifold of the
system. In other hand, control of discreet model of the system on a defined
manifold (Poincare map) is main essence of some important control methods of
chaotic systems for example OGY method. Here, by using different methods of
defining slow manifold of the H-L systems the efficiency of the OGY control for
stabilizing problem investigated.Comment: 4 page
A power satellite sonic simulator
A simulator is described which generates and transmits a beam of audible sound energy mathematically similar to the solar power satellite (SPS) power beam. The simulator provides a laboratory means for analysis of ground based closed loop SPS phase control and of ionospheric effects on the SPS microwave power beam

Neutron methods for the direct determination of the magnetic induction in thick films
We review different neutron methods which allow extracting directly the value
of the magnetic induction in thick films: Larmor precession, Zeeman spatial
beam-splitting and neutron spin resonance. Resulting parameters obtained by the
neutron methods and standard magnetometry technique are presented and compared.
The possibilities and specificities of the neutron methods are discussed
