Systems, apparatuses, and methods for generating and/or utilizing scalar-longitudinal waves

Abstract

Scalar-longitudinal waves (SLWs) may be transmitted and/or received. A first apparatus configured to transmit and/or receive SLWs may include a linear first conductor configured to operate as a linear monopole antenna at a first operating frequency. The first apparatus may include a tubular second conductor coaxially aligned with the first conductor and an annular balun configured to cancel most or all return current on an outer surface of the second conductor during operation such that the first conductor transmits or receives SLWs. A second apparatus configured to transmit and/or receive scalar-longitudinal waves may include a bifilar coil formed in an alternating fashion of a first conductor and a second conductor such that an electrical current in the coil will propagate in opposite directions in adjacent turns of the coil thereby cancelling any magnetic field so that during operation the coil transmits or receives SLWs.

1 . A system for providing a computational simulator based on scalar-longitudinal waves, the system comprising:
 one or more hardware processors configured by machine-readable instruction to:
 provide a computerized physical simulation environment in which electromagnetic simulations of an antenna or device are performed; 
 provide simulated classical transverse electromagnetic waves that are received or transmitted in the electromagnetic simulation of the antenna or device; 
 provide simulated scalar-longitudinal waves that are received or transmitted in the electromagnetic simulations of the antenna or device; 
 evaluate characteristics of the antenna or device based on information associated with simulated classical transverse electromagnetic waves and/or simulated scalar-longitudinal waves; and 
 optimize one or more characteristics of the antenna or device based on the evaluation of the characteristics. 
   
     
     
         2 . The system of  claim 1 , wherein the computerized physical simulation environment includes a reflector added to the antenna or device to form a directed beam for transmission and/or reception of scalar-longitudinal waves. 
     
     
         3 . A process for allocating spectral frequencies of scalar-longitudinal waves, the process comprising:
 allocating bands of spectral frequencies of scalar-longitudinal waves to one or more entities according to rules comprising:
 no entity shall transmit at frequencies reserved for radio astronomy to avoid interference at radio telescopes; 
 a given entity is allowed to transmit over open-spectrum bands so long as the given entity adheres to restrictions on transmission power and any other relevant constraints; 
 only licensed entities of a given spectral frequency band are allowed to transmit so long as individual ones of the licensed entities of the given spectral frequency transmit in non-overlapping geographic regions; and 
 only licensed entities of spectral frequency bands corresponding to amateur radio frequencies are allowed to transmit so long as the licensed entities of spectral frequency bands corresponding to amateur radio frequencies use a listen-before-talk contention-based protocol.
