System for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems Background art
At this point renewable energy systems, especially large scale wind energy conversion systems like conventional wind turbines and other more advanced systems like the one described in our patent application GB1516005.4 do not have active observation, detection, data analyzing and protection systems from aerial fauna as well as any other aerial traits like for example unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or airplanes.
Introduction
This application address this problem. Convectional large open rotors wind turbines are not very suitable for solution described in this application but renewable energy solution described in our GB1516005.4 application it is suitable so I will explain application of this system on that solution.
System consists device for renewable energy conversion (wind, or solar or wind and solar energy) on which are placed radars, cameras, lights and sound wave emitters as well as appropriate computer(s) and software(s) for data processing. Device for renewable energy conversion consist main support pillar, on which are placed rotating rings with support wings. At support wings are placed wind energy conversion devices as well solar energy conversion devices together or individually. Lateral sides of supporting wings are slanted from above and below in order to reduce fluid (in this case air) resistance as well as to direct air toward wind turbines. On upper slanted sides are in this case placed solar energy conversion devices (solar panels or solar films for example) and among them are placed air directors. At bottom slanted surfaces can be placed cameras (which can be safety cameras, thermal or night cameras or combination of these), lights (which can be Light Emitting Diodes (LED) lights, Incandescent, fluorescent, High-Intensity Discharge (HID) lights or some other type of light like laser for example or combination of these) and sound emitting device. Some of the supporting wings like the highest supporting wing can have radars placed on them. In case of example presented within this application emitting surface of radar is slanted both in horizontal and vertical axis so that just 4 of these radars placed on supporting wing corners can cover 360+ degrees area omnidirectionally. Some of the median supporting wings can also have installed radars slanted only around vertical axis. In this way it is possible also to cover 360+ degrees areas mostly in horizontal direction but not fully 360+ degrees omnidirectionally. At the top of supporting pillar is placed top radar platform circular in shape with slanted sides on which are placed radars which radars waves emitting surfaces are also slanted. In this particular case on radar platform are placed three radars under 120 degrees angle distance. However any other number of radars under different angular distance can be placed. In this particular case those three radars also cover 360+ degrees area omnidirectionally (in all directions of space). Radar platform can be fixed or movable, i.e. it can have 360+ degrees rotational capability around vertical axis. Radars placed on supporting wings can be phased array radars, active (active electronically scanned array (AESA) for example) or passive or any other type of radar. At the top of supporting pillar is placed communication, data sending and receiving antenna. Supporting wings may consist aerial vehicle landing platform with direct and/or electro induction charging disc(s). To role of aerial vehicles landing platform is to provide lending and electro i.e. electromagnetic charging station for electrical energy driven aerial vehicles. Direct and/or electro induction charging disc(s) can also be placed at the top of main support pillar and supporting wings.
How does system for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems function?
System for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems works by receiving data from radars and cameras process those data and determine the best possible course of action to reduce or neutralize threat for renewable energy system or/and send those data to human operator(s) for further action(s). For example if flock of birds flying toward renewable energy system, flock will be registered firstly by radar(s) and then by camera(s). Data about position, velocity and size of flock will be transferred to data processing center which will based on those data activate lights and sound emitters to scare birds and divert them from renewable energy system. If system is set differently that those data, before automatic reaction, can be send to human operator(s) first. Obviously the same radar system can be also use for weather monitoring and sending data about weather especially in recognizing storm forming which can help better and faster reaction and storm preparation by individuals and communities. The same system can be used for observation and guidance of aerial traffic as well. One system for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems can consists same or rather variety of different types of radars. More than one system for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems can communicate and work together (to exchange and process data) to cover and process wide space and aerial areas as well as surface land or water surface areas. Data obtained on this way can be sent to other centers on earth or in space. From different utilization perspective this system may also be considered as specific renewable energy based radar and signaling system.

Detail description of invention
System consists device for renewable energy conversion (wind, or solar or wind and solar energy) 1 on which are placed radars 15, 25, 26, 31, 17, T1, 28, 32, 12, 29, 30 cameras 8, 24, lights 9, 22 and sound wave emitters 7, 23, as well as appropriate computer(s) and software(s) center 44 for data processing. Device for renewable energy conversion consist main support pillar 2, on which are placed rotating rings 3 with support wings 4, 14, 16. On support wings 4, 14, 16 are placed wind energy conversion devices 10 as well solar energy conversion devices 6 together or individually. Solar energy conversion devices can also be placed at main supporting pillar 2. Lateral sides of supporting wings 4, 14, 16 are partially slanted from above and below in order to reduce fluid (in this case air) resistance as well as to direct air toward wind turbines 10. On upper slanted sides are in this case placed solar energy conversion devices (solar panels or solar films for example) 6 and among them are placed fluid (air) directors 5. At bottom slanted surfaces can be placed cameras 8 (which can be safety cameras, thermal or night cameras some other types of cameras or combination of all these), lights 9 (which can be light emitting diodes (LED) lights, Incandescent, fluorescent, highintensity discharge (HID) lights or some other type of light like laser for example or combination of all these) and sound emitting device 7. Some of the supporting wings like the highest supporting wing 14 can have radars 15, 25, 26, 31 placed on them. In case of example presented within this application emitting surface of radars 15, 25, 26, 31 is slanted both in horizontal and vertical axis so that just four of these radars placed on supporting wing 14 corners can cover 360+ degrees area omnidirectionally. Exemplary radar covering areas for radars 15, 25, 26, 31 are 36, 37, 38 and 39. Some of the median supporting wings like wing 16 can also have installed radars 17, 27, 28, 32 slanted only around vertical axis. In this way it is possible also to cover 360+ degrees areas mostly in horizontal direction but not fully 360+ degrees omnidirectionally. Exemplary radar covering areas for radars 17, 27, 28, 32 are 40, 41, 42 and 43. At the top 21 of supporting pillar 2 is placed top radar platform 11 circular in shape (but can be any other shape) with partially slanted upper and bottom sides on which are placed radars 12, 29, 30 which radars waves emitting surfaces are also slanted. In this particular case on radar platform 11 are placed three radars 12, 29, 30 with 120 degrees mutual angle distance. However any other number of radars under different angular distance can be placed. In this particular case those three radars also cover 360+ degrees area omnidirectionally (in all directions of space). At radar platform can also be placed cameras 24, lights 22 and sound wave emitters 23. Radar platform 11 can be fixed or movable, i.e. it can have 360+ degrees rotational capability around vertical axis. Radars placed at radar platform 11 and supporting wings 14, 16 can be phased array radars, active (active electronically scanned array (AESA) for example) or passive or any other type of radar. At the top 21 of supporting pillar 2 is placed communication, data sending and receiving antenna 13. Supporting wings 4 may consist aerial vehicle landing platform 18 with direct and/or electro induction charging disc(s) 19. To role of aerial vehicles landing platform 18 is to provide lending and electro i.e. electromagnetic charging station for electrical energy driven aerial vehicles 20. Direct and/or electro induction charging disc(s) 19 can also be placed at the top 21 of main support pillar 2 and supporting wings 4, 14, 16.
How does system for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems function?
System for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems may have radars only on radar platform 11, only at topmost supporting wing 14, or only at any other supporting wings 4, 16. In different variant system for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems may have radars on each: radar platform 11, topmost supporting wing 14, and on any other supporting wings 4, 16. In another variant system for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems may have radars on radar platform 11, topmost supporting wing 14, but not any other supporting wings 4,16. In yet another variant system for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems may have radars on radar platform 11, at any other supporting wings 4, 16 but not on topmost supporting wing 14. It can also have radars either on topmost support wing 14 and/or on any other support wing 4, 16 but not at radar platform 11.
In any of previous variants of application system for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems works by receiving data from radars 15, 25, 26, 31, 17, 27, 28, 32, 12, 29, 30 and cameras 8, 24, process those data by data processing and system coordination center 44 and determine the best possible course of action to reduce or neutralize threat for renewable energy system or/and send those data to human operator(s) for further action(s). For example if flock of birds flying toward renewable energy system, flock will be registered firstly by radar(s) 15, 25, 26, 31, 17, 27, 28, 32, 12, 29, 30 and then by camera(s) 8, 24. Data about position, velocity and size of flock will be transferred to data multiple sources (sensors, antennas, etc.) processing center 44 which will based on those data activate lights 9, 22 and sound wave emitters 7, 23 to scare birds and divert them from renewable energy system. If system is set differently those data, before automatic reaction, can be send to human operator(s) first. Obviously the same radar(s) and data processing system 44 can be also used for weather monitoring and data processing and sending especially in recognizing storm forming which can help better and faster reaction and storm preparation by individuals and communities. The same system can be used for observation and guidance of aerial traffic as well. One system for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems can consists same or rather variety of different types of radars. More than one system for aerial observation, detection, data analyzing and protection of renewable energy systems can communicate and work together (to exchange and process data) to cover and process wide space and aerial areas as well as surface land or water surface areas. Data obtained on this way can be sent to other centers on earth or in space. From different utilization perspective this system may also be considered as specific, renewable energy based, radar and signaling system. With appropriate equipment this system can also be upgraded and used for energy storage and water production by method of condensation. All electronic systems including radars 15, 25, 26, 31, 17, 27, 28, 32, 12, 29, 30, lights 9, 22, sound emitters 7, 23, antennas 13, cameras 8, 24, charging disks 19, mechanism for rotating disk 3 as well rotating mechanism for radar platform 11, if moveable, will obtain energy from electric energy storage, placed inside or outside main support pillar 2. Energy storage (which can be batteries, compressed air, extracted and compressed hydrogen, fly wills, gravitational mechanisms, etc.) will be supplied by electric energy created by wind energy conversion devices and/or solar energy conversion devices, previously treated by inverters and converters.
