Awesome Zephyr will provide connectivity from the stratosphere
- Tuesday | 20th August, 2019
The Zephyr aircraft has also flown in excess of 74 000 feet and repeatedly demonstrated an ability to remain in the stratosphere overnight. These achievements of un-interrupted and persistent flight have proven the readiness of Zephyr as a platform capable of delivering connectivity services from the stratosphere, and are the result of a 15?year journey. In the near-term, Zephyr will provide cellular backhaul services to rural and semi-urban under-served regions, and where temporary capacity is required. M2M and IoTLow-latency performance and the ability to provide lower data rate services across wider areas makes Zephyr well suited to the Internet of Things (IoT)/machine-to-machine (M2M) connectivity applications. Market demand will be driven by lower capital expenditure (CAPEX) investment, short lead-times and operational flexibility, which make the decision to go with HAPS connectivity low risk.
