Abstract

The present invention refers to an airborne system (100') and in particular to an airborne power generation system (100). The airborne power generation system (100) comprises an airborne unit (10) configured (i) as an aerial vehicle (10'), in particular as a kite or a multicopter, and (ii) to harvest and convert wind power into electrical power, a ground unit (50) configured to send and / or receiveelectrical power to and from the airborne unit (10), respectively, and a coupling and tether unit (30) for mechanically and electrically coupling the airborne unit (10) to the ground unit (50) and configured to transmit electrical power between the airborne unit (10) and the ground unit (50). The airborne unit (10) comprises a plurality of motor / generator units (12) each of which having a wind harvesting / propelling rotor (14) mechanically coupled thereto and groups (16) of motor / generator units (12) and their assigned electrical transmission paths are electrically and / or galvanically uncoupled, insulated, isolated and / or separated with respect to each other at least in the airborne unit (10) and the coupling and tether unit (30).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an onboard system, an onboard power generation system and method, and more particularly to an onboard wind power conversion system and method configured to harvest wind power and convert it into electrical power. Background technique [0002] Harvesting wind power and converting it into electricity has become popular in recent years. In addition to tower-based wind power systems consisting of a tower equipped with a rotor-driven generator unit on top, airborne systems are also conceived. This on-board system differs from known tower-based wind power conversion systems in that the rotor-driven generator unit is carried by the aircraft, i.e. on an on-board unit that passes through the air to communicate with the wind interaction. The onboard unit is held to the ground unit by a tether carrying the mechanical load and also capable of electrically coupling the aircraft to the ground unit, in particular for the transmissio...
