Abstract
We have found that the dimensional ratios of the Great Pyramid of Giza (GPG) express the key ratios of an AC volt- age sine wave as well as ratios of the Fibonacci number. As pyramidal horn antennas are suitable for the detection of short-pulse waveforms, we reasoned that the shape of GPG could embody a time domain, wideband antenna for atmos- pheric electrostatic discharge (ESD) impulses. This hypothe- sis has subsequently been confirmed. We have further found that the pyramidal antenna, modeled on the GPG, can cou- ple into the atmosphere and transfer the power of ESD impulses into a novel lumped-element resonant circuit that converts the random impulses into regular series of expo- nentially decaying sinusoidal wave trains. Thus, ESD impuls- es can be transformed into an alternating current of pre- dictable frequency. This system could become a source of renewable electric power by utilizing the electrical activity of the atmosphere.
