Businesswire: HAPS Alliance White Paper on Flight Tests Demonstrates Communication Opportunities
To tap into the larger market opportunity, HAPS solutions in the stratosphere need to operate in harsh thermal conditions, including temperatures as low as -90° C. The white paper shows how HAPS Alliance member organizations are navigating these challenges to build a cooperative ecosystem. In fact, by 2029, the HAPS market is expected to reach $4 billion in value, according to Northern Sky Research. The paper outlines how HAPS Alliance Aviation Working Group member solutions are unlocking the potential of the stratosphere, filling a capability gap between terrestrial networks and satellites at 18 to 50 km above the surface of the earth.
