HIGH ALTITUDE

AERONAUTICAL
PLATFORM

INTRODUCTION:
HAP(High Altitude aeronautical Platform).

Quasi stationary aircraft.

Deliver a service to a large area.
Very high altitude(17-22 km), stay for hours,
even days.
Providing wireless narrow band, broadband
telecommunication are broadcasting services.
Coverage up to 1000 km.
Remote control from ground.
Solar powered and unmanned airship capable
of long endurance on station for several years.
Either engine or solar.
Station at 16km (HALO) or 21 km(Helios).
Advance Tele Communication Broad band

HIGH ALTITUDE
AERONAUTICAL PLATFORM

HALO NETWORK CONCEPT:

Schools, hospitals, doctors, office and small to
medium size business.
Low price of broadband service.
Protocols such as ATM and SONET, interface
HALO network.
(PSTN) Public Switched Telephone Network.
Internet backbone- www and electronic commerce.

ON BOARD EQUIPMENT:
Seek high reliability, low power conception,
Single beam antenna (Ground Station).
Multi beam antenna (user).
CDMA (Code division multiple access).
Transponder (50 antenna).

GROUND INSTALLATION:

Single ground installation in to two location

for redundancy.
Advantage to collocating RF units, base station &
mobile switching center.
No need for power amplifier and antenna interface BS.
Common wide band power.

POWR SYSTEM & MISSION

REQUIREMENTS:
Photovoltaic cell and regenerative fuel cell.
Mission requirements also substantial affect the
aircraft size.
Solar powered aircraft energy must be collected
for night also.
Propulsion system consists of electric motor,
gear box and propeller.
Efficiency increases, aircraft size decreases.
Aircraft size increases increasing altitude.
Installation directly over wing surface.

VARIOUS HAAPS PROJECT:

Sky station US Company Sky Station International
250 platforms are announced.
Date rates: 2 mbps for UL.
10 mbps for DL.
StratSat UK Advanced Technology Group (ATG)
Civilian and military app.
Solar array renewable energy.
HALO proteus (High altitude long operation)
Angel technology corporation.
Three eight hours shifts.
Sky tower
AeroVironment- Solar electric air plane called Helios.
Six months , 60,000 feet in stratosphere.
Ground switching router.

ADVANTAGE:
Rapid deployment.
Relatively low cost .
Broadband mm wave LMDS band & low propagation
delay.
Large area coverage.
Long range terrestrial link affected rain attenuation.
Very large system capacity, small cells than satellite.
Less ground based infrastructure.
Flexibility, adaptability frequency.
Suited to mm service, broadcast multicast
Fewer problem in LOS(Line of Sight) path compared
to terrestrial.

CONCLUSION:
HALO provide wireless broadband communication
service.
Several advantage over terrestrial wireless network.
Satellite more expensive terminals with high power
same data rates through HALO.
Longer propagation delays demand more complex
algorithm.
LEO (Low Earth Orbit).
Entire satellite reengineer for terrestrial but easy as
repair and rapidly evolving performance in HALO.
