Broadband Communications and Applications from High Altitude Platforms
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we give an overview of using High Altitude Platforms (HAPs) for providing wireless telecommunication and broadband communication services. Comparisons of HAPs, satellite and terrestrial systems are shown to illustrate unique characteristics of the system. Three architectures for HAP systems are discussed in terms of cooperation with terrestrial and satellite systems. Telecommunication, broadband and disaster applications of HAPs are shown based on system scenarios.

Wireless Communications from High Altitude Platforms
The demand for wireless communication is increasing day by day. People want a high speed of communication in less time. No one is interested in use of bunch of wires. So we move to wireless communication. As technology increases a demand also increases. Now everyone wants a fast communication from anywhere to anyone. Even rural area also requires internet facility. It is too hard to establish a...
متن کاملPower Amplifier Linearization for Lmds from High Altitude Aeronautical Platforms
Introduction. Broadband LMDS (Local Multi-Point Distribution Systems) is a wireless point-to-multipoint communication system operating above 20GHz (usually around 26− 31GHz) that can be used to provide digital voice, data, Internet, and video services. One possible solution for LMDS is to use High-Altitude Aeronautical Platforms (HAAPs), which are situated in the stratosphere, 20− 22km above th...
متن کاملHigh-altitude platforms for wireless communications
The demand for high-capacity wireless services is bringing increasing challenges, especially for delivery of the ‘last mile’. Terrestrially, the need for line-of-sight propagation paths represents a constraint unless very large numbers of base-station masts are deployed, while satellite systems have capacity limitations. An emerging solution is offered by high-altitude platforms (HAPs) operatin...
