Deflector grid

The deflector grid is an important part of Federation starships like the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D). It is a part of the deflector system.

In 2369, Geordi La Forge devised a technique, called warp-power transfer, to channel additional energy generated by the warp drive through the EPS mains to the deflector grid, thereby increasing the sensor capacity of the Enterprise-D by twenty-six percent. 

The runabout used by Kira Nerys and Julian Bashir in 2370 had a damaged deflector grid.
