United States Patent Number 5,293,176
Issued: March 8, 1994
Invented by: Paul G. Elliot.
Titled: "Folded Cross Grid Dipole Antenna Element".
Although it is unknown whether this particular patent was used in the
HAARP program, what is known is that the inventor, Paul Elliot, was part of the team
identified in the government documents. He obviously brought to the project a high
level of knowledge of antenna arrays and related technology. It is not known whether
this antenna was intended to be used for sending energy, receiving power or both.
This technology is useful in power-beaming systems as well as the other applications
described in other patents in this chapter.
We speculate that this antenna provided a more efficient system of energy
transfer for use in the Eastlund applications. It is possible that, with the antenna gain
realized by this design, a larger amount of power could be sent up to the ionosphere.
This might be possible from a much smaller antenna field than originally
contemplated by Eastlund.

United States Patent Number 5,202,689
Issued: April 13, 1993
Invented by: Robert W. Bussard and Thomas H. Wallace.
Titled: "Lightweight Focusing Reflector For Space".
The reflector is intended to complement power-beaming systems previously
described in this chapter. According to the patent, "Large reflectors have many
important applications in space. Reflectors can be used, for example, to reflect
sunlight onto a solar collector or redirect a microwave power beam." The system for
the power-beaming described in this patent was designed for sending 10 gigawatts of
power.
The transmitting, reflecting and receiving system is massive, and the cost
of building and using such a system is immense. However, according to the patent,
"The instant invention can be used to transmit power less expensively than
the use of microwaves within the Earth's atmosphere. It is expected that as the cost of
deploying equipment in space decreases, the cost of using the instant invention to
transmit power will become lower than the cost of transmitting power using
conventional transmission lines. A cost analysis has been performed using cost
projections for the 2000 to 2010 time frame. This cost analysis suggests that a
principle limiting factor is efficiency and the cost of the radio frequency sources, not
the cost of fabricating and launching the reflector."
