ABSTRACT:
A linear energy communication system which allows a stationary device to communicate with a device moving along a predefined path through the use of radiated energy. An electronic signal generated by a transmitter is converted into energy in the opto-electromagnetic frequency spectrum by means of an appropriate transducer. The energy is then focused into a line. A receiving device moving along the path of the line receives the linear energy and converts the received energy back into the original electronic signal. The system will allow for the communication and guidance of a remote moving vehicle along a predefined path without the encumbrance of wires, buss bars or broad band communications.
