Retro-directive Microwave Power Beam Steering with Attitude and Position Errors of Array Modules

Software retro-directive microwave power beam (MPB) steering contributes much to beam collection efficiency if microwave power transmission (MPT) systems. But for large scale microwave power transmitting array, attitude and position errors of compositive modules introduce damage to power density and beam pointing accuracy. Such degradation of MPT systems can be corrected via phase compensation. Of course desired effect can only be achieved only when the root mean square (RMS) of those errors is small enough.
