For the Space Solar Power Satellite/Station (SPS), we have to advance and expand Microwave Power Transmission (MPT) technologies on ground. However, there is no allowed frequency for the MPT by law in the world. It seems negative feedback between development and industry. Therefore, we have proposed three step roadmap of the MPT to advance the MPT as follows; First Step: Weak Power - Wireless Power Transmission under Present Regulation (RF-ID (Radio Frequency-IDentification), LED (Light Emitting Diode), IC (Integrated Circuit), Ubiquitous Power Source, Energy Harvesting..) or High Power - Wireless Power Transmission in Closed Area under Present Frequency Regulation. Second Step: High Power - Wireless Power Transmission (WPT) under New Frequency Regulation (Special Frequency for WPT, not yet) to/from Moving Target/Transmitter on Ground. Final Step: Wireless Power Transmission in/from/to Space (SPS). In this paper, we show some new application of the high power MPT on ground. Our proposed system is the MPT in a pipe or the MPT in a closed area. One is a wireless charging system of Electric Vehicle (EV). The other is a Wireless Power Distribution System (WPDS) in a building. In both systems, we need high efficient rectenna, rectifying antenna, with higher microwave power of approximately 10-100 W. In this presentation, we will show the developed high power rectenna with commonly used Si Schottky barrier diodes and microwave circuits. The rectenna for EV charging provides 58.6 percent at 2.45 GHz, 10 W, 30 Ohm of RF-DC (Radio Frequency-Direct Current) conversion efficiency which is improved 7.6 point against previous rectenna for EV. The rectenna for WPDS theoretically provides 63.5 percent at 2.45 GHz, 100 W of RF-DC conversion efficiency which is improved 11.5 point against previous rectenna for WPDS.
