Sanswire Networks announced plans to demonstrate the wireless transmission capabilities of its Stratellites in Atlanta during the week of July 12, 2004. 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. Subsequent to the July 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. "These tests will allow us to show the world why we are so excited about the endless capabilities of the Stratellite platform," said Michael Molen, CEO of Sanswire Networks. "The next step will be to place an airship in the stratosphere. Once the first Stratellite is in place, we believe wireless communications as we know it will change forever." 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. |
