Abstract

High Altitude Platform Stations (HAPS) are promising connectivity infrastructure options to address the digital divide in rural and remote locations. These systems, which operate in the stratosphere and can offer terrestrial-grade latency, line of sight propagation capabilities, and more coverage than ground-based systems. The commercial trial of HAPS in Kenya by Loon (an Alphabet/Google spin-out) in 2019 signaled a new era for HAPS-based connectivity.
