AI Technical Summary
Conventional communication networks using High Altitude Platform Stations (HAPS) face limitations in flexibility, network configuration, inter-HAPS communication distance, weather restrictions, and gateway installation, leading to inflexible and restricted network operations.
A system incorporating relay flight vehicles that can freely move in the air, providing a hub function, router functionality, 5G Mobile Edge Computing, and interconnection interfaces to establish flexible network configurations, including mesh and ring-type networks, and enable long-range communication relays between HAPS.
The system enables flexible network configurations, reduces communication distance limitations, accommodates challenging weather conditions, and optimizes communication capacity allocation, enhancing network redundancy and reducing processing delays.
