The platform is positioned above thecoverage area.There are basically two types of HAAPS.Lighter-than air HAAPS are kept stationary,while airplane-based HAAPS are flown in atight circle.
or broadcast applications, a simpleantenna beams signals to terminals on thegro!nd. or individ!ali"ed comm!nication, s!ch astelephony, #cells# are created on the gro!ndby some beam forming techni$!e in order tore!se channels for spatially separated !sers,as is done in cell!lar service.%eam forming can be as sophisticated as
the !se of phased-array antennas . &n the case of a moving HAAP it wo!ldalso be necessary to compensate motion byelectronic or mechanical means in order tokeep the cells stationary or to #hand off#connections between cells as is done incell!lar telephony.

HAAPS ,ssues
It is still not proven that planes can fly at stratospheric altitudes for long stretches
of time# that dirigibles can be stationed at stratospheric altitude# and that the
position of weather balloons can be controlled
¬her critical issue is the presence of winds in the stratosphere. The average
minimum stratospheric wind velocity is '%%m*s and occurs between +, %%% and
-, %%%ft depending on latitude. ven though "&&s are designed to withstand
these winds it may not be able to withstand sudden wind gusts resulting in
temporary or total loss of communication

Applications
HAAP technolog! might "e a"le to achieve man! of the "enefits of the 25O+"ased Direct Lroadcast Satellite without having to transmit -uite sohomogeneousl! over so large an area# 8nlike 25O+"ased technolog!* upstreamchannels are also possi"le in HAAPs which would ena"le interactive $3 and
,nternet access capa"ilities#
The other type of application in which a "&&/s large coverage area ought to be
advantageous is in telecommunications for areas having a low density of
customers# especially when prospective customer/s specific geographic locations
are unknown.
& "&& system with a coverage area with a look angle of $, degree will give a
line of sight communication. Thus the higher fre0uencies such as 123S# '45"6#
-5"6 and so on can be utili6ed for very wide band internet access# entertainment
video and audio and videoconferencing.
