Soft development of a high altitude platform network for national wireless communication service

The provision of wireless services to the Egyptian territory is proposed using a network of high altitude platforms "HAPs". The platforms are interconnected with optical interplatform links in order to provide all wireless communication system. The connection is directed from the source to the overlaying platform and routed from one platform to the other until that one that is analogous to the destination. Each platform serves a certain area that is divided into cells, with each cell being covered by one beam of the antenna array onboard the platform. The system has the promise to swiftly provide wireless communication service anywhere in the territory at a minimal cost that is cheaper and more robust than the wired counterpart.
