1980 Solar Power Satellite Program Review

Scatter i ng Specular scattering of the power beam at the power beam fundamental frequency is expected to result from most deviations in the Rectenna parameters. The properties of this scattering, including the modeling- determined scattering losses due to variations in several parameters from design center values required for total absorption at normal incidence, are shown in Figure 1.
