Abstract
A power tether for aerial devices such as balloons or drones operates with as few as a single conductor, providing a ground return by capacitive coupling between the aerial device and a ground plane at a base station. High-frequency, high-voltage power allows significant power transfer through the low capacitance between the aerial station and the ground minimizing the necessary current flow.
