When necessary, they generate microwaves that can merge into one powerful ray to attack one purpose. It is very similar to the Star of Death from the Star Wars, which brings together eight laser rays to destroy the planet. This idea was considered difficult to put into practice, because in order to effectively combine power, electromagnetic waves from different sources should reach the same place in the same time and in the same form.
Now in China, experimental tests of such a system, potentially designed for military use, have been successfully conducted. The tests have confirmed that the device can effectively suppress the signals of American GPS and other satellites. According to the calculations of the research group, for synchronization of rays it is necessary that each microwave emitter is unfolded with an error of positioning no more .
In order to overcome these restrictions, experts have combined transmitting devices on different platforms into one network with the help of fiber, which so they managed to synchronize very accurately. In February, it became known that China created a powerful microwave against satellites, aircraft and unmanned apparatus.
