What is phased array steering and a pilot beam? From a glance online it looks like maybe the antenna can change what it's transmitting based on the distance to the rectenna at the time, is that right? It seems the phased array steering and pilot beam are used for the GEO SBSP, but they would be able to handle the widely varying distances during lunar/Earth rotation?
