03150990ItohThis award supports the participation of American scientists in a U.S.-Japan joint seminar on space solar power systems to be held in Kyoto, Japan from July 3-4, 2003. The co-organizers are Professor Tatsuo Itoh at the University of California, Los Angeles and Professor Hiroshi Matsumoto at Kyoto University in Japan. The meeting will bring together research scientists from the U.S. and Japan, two countries where important and exciting progress in this area of science is being undertaken. The Space Solar Power Satellite (SSPS) project is a technology for renewable sources of energy obtained by collecting the solar power in space, transforming its energy into a high power microwave beam that is then directed to the surface of the earth. On the ground this directed microwave beam is rectified into DC power for delivery, storage and other use. Japan has also created Solar Power Satellite projects both among industries and universities. They have also been looking into various aspects of the SSPS, such as solar cells, large scale space structures, microwave generation and transmission, ground based rectennas, robotics, electrical propulsion, attitude control, system design and operations, environmental effects, and economic impacts. These study elements include both practical implementation issues and scientific basic research issues. The co-organizers have complementary scientific expertise in the field. This enables them to evaluate and attract the best scientists to participate. The development of sustainable, renewable energy supplies is an area where both the U.S. and Japan clearly have a very strong common interest. Both countries are interested in developing alternatives to oil and nuclear power. In addition, power beaming will require some international agreements on the use of spectrum space between the countries to make it possible. The seminar organizers have made a special effort to involve graduate students as both participants and observers. The exchange of ideas and data with Japanese experts in the field will enable U.S. participants to advance their own work, and will set the stage for future collaborative projects. Following the seminar the organizers plan to provide conference proceedings on their UCLA Microwave Electronics Laboratory Web page.

03150990Itohis奖支持美国科学家参加2003年7月3日至4日在日本京都举行的太阳能太阳能系统的美国 - 日本联合研讨会。共同组织者是加州大学，洛杉矶大学，洛杉矶大学和日本高索托大学的Tatsuo Itoh教授。 该会议将汇集来自美国和日本的研究科学家，两个国家正在进行这一科学领域的重要而激动人心的进步。 太空太阳能卫星（SSP）项目是一种通过在太空中收集太阳能，将其能量转换为高功率​​微波梁的技术，可获得可再生能源，然后将其转换为高功率​​微波梁，然后将其定向到地球表面。 在地面上，该定向的微波梁被纠正为直流电源，用于交付，存储和其他用途。 日本还创建了工业和大学之间的太阳能卫星项目。 他们还一直在研究SSP的各个方面，例如太阳能电池，大规模空间结构，微波生成和传输，基于地面的直立，机器人技术，电气推进，态度控制，系统设计和操作，环境效果以及经济影响。 这些研究要素包括实际实施问题和科学基础研究问题。 共同组织者在该领域具有互补的科学专业知识。 这使他们能够评估并吸引最好的科学家参与。 可持续，可再生能源供应的发展是美国和日本显然具有非常强烈的共同利益的领域。 两国都对开发石油和核电的替代方案感兴趣。 此外，功率束缚将需要一些国际协议，以使国家之间使用频谱空间使之成为可能。 研讨会组织者特别努力使研究生成为参与者和观察者。 与该领域日本专家的想法和数据交流将使美国参与者能够推进自己的工作，并为将来的协作项目奠定基础。 在研讨会之后，组织者计划在其UCLA微波电子实验室网页上提供会议诉讼。
