Stratellite Demo Potential Uses Cover 3G/4G Mobile

12th July , 2004

Sanswire Networks, LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Globetel Communications Corp. announced the schedule for its demonstration of the wireless transmission capabilities of its Stratellites.

The live demonstration will be held at the Company's Atlanta headquarters on July 13 and 14, 2004. The July 13 demonstration will be a private demonstration for foreign visitors and politicians. The July 14 demonstration will be open to all registered visitors and media and will begin at 10:00 am. There will be a technical briefing following the demonstration.

The Company plans to demonstrate how it will use Stratellites as high-altitude wireless transmission platforms. The demonstration will consist of a number of wireless tests using various IP products and services over different frequencies, all from a fixed position in the sky. Sanswire will hold the platform in one stationary position using GPS technology. A series of antennas will be mounted to the platform that will receive a wireless signal from an earth station and retransmit the live signal to a designated area on the ground, allowing the Company to demonstrate the voice, video, and data capabilities of the high-altitude wireless platform. Attendees will be able to make an international phone call, surf the Internet, and watch live television programming. The Company will also be demonstrating the surveillance capabilities of the Stratellite.

Subsequent to the communications demonstration, the Company will set a date for the next round of testing that will involve launching a Stratellite into the stratosphere and holding it in position at 65,000 feet.

"The interest we have received from all over the world has been overwhelming," said Michael Molen, CEO of Sanswire Networks. "We believe that this is the most exciting communications project of our generation."

A Stratellite is similar to a satellite, but is stationed in the stratosphere rather than in orbit. At an altitude of only 13 miles, each Stratellite will have clear line-of-site communications capability to an entire major metropolitan area as well as being able to provide coverage across major rural areas. Several Stratellites linked together could cover many hundreds of thousands of square miles. The Stratellite will allow subscribers to easily communicate in "both directions" using readily available wireless devices. In addition to voice and data, proposed telecommunications uses include cellular, 3G/4G mobile, MMDS, paging, fixed wireless telephony, HDTV, real-time surveillance and others.
