ABSTRACT:

TECHNICAL FIELD
The invention relates to the field of communication devices, and more particularly to devices which communicate utilizing gravitational waves or radiation.
BACKGROUND ART
Einstein's General Theory of Relativity predicts the existence of gravitational waves or radiation which are produced by a change in the distribution of matter. Such waves theoretically travel at the speed of light. The existence of such waves has been experimentally confirmed and operating gravitational radiation detectors of various types have been designed, for example the low-temperature gravitational radiation detectors at the High Energy Physics Laboratory, Stanford University. Such radiation, however, has not to date been utilized as a communication medium.
DISCLOSURE OF INVENTION
The present invention utilizes a resonant frequency set up between identical masses to transmit information by gravitational wave pulses.
The invention provides a communication system comprising: i) first and second pieces of superconducting material, identical in size, mass and shape, separated by a given distance D; ii) means to modify the density of the first piece of superconducting material at a variable frequency; and iii) detection means for sensing the effect of gravitational wave pulses on said second piece of superconducting material.
The invention further provides a method of communication comprising: i) creating a resonant gravitational field by providing first and second pieces of superconducting material, identical in size, mass and shape, separated by a given distance D; ii) generating pulses in the resonant gravitational field by modifying the density of the first piece of superconducting material at a variable frequency; and iii) detecting the effect of said gravitational wave pulses on the second piece of superconducting material.
