Balloon based low altitude communication relay utilizing LoRa

In this day and age, a lot of research is focused on the upcoming 6th generation (6G) communication technology, which is expected to enable cutting edge applications related to the internet of things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI), autonomous driving, advanced robotics, virtual and augmented reality (VAR). Upgrading the areas with weak or no coverage is essential. Traditional satellite communication systems appear to be the natural solution to have stable communication, however, this technology is extremely expensive and cannot easily be accessed by everyone. This paper proposes a cheaper solution to link areas with limited coverage to existing communication networks. The idea is to use a network of balloon-based small communication relays that enables the transfer of communication signals from a point A to a point B in a secure manner.
