Innovation

The proposed generator and advanced non-linear controller would be an enabler of directed energy weapons (e.g. lasers), which are fundamentally more precise and less expensive to operate than their traditional counterparts but are susceptible to large and potentially harmful transients.

Objectives 

This project seeks to increase the power density, the controllability, the reliability, and the manufacturability of HVDC generator systems. The four work packages, detailed below, focus on addressing these four technical...
