Use of balloons in the stratosphere to provide high-speed and stable wireless networks in remote areas

Google's Project Whye aims to use the stratospheric hot air balloons to provide high-speed and stable wireless networks in remote areas, and to use algorithms to maintain the spacing between balloons to ensure there is no coverage. It may sound a bit sci-fi, but today Google announces that Project Whye is going to be a step closer to reality by using the operator's spectrum to provide wireless networks in remote areas, with the services of its operators.

In fact, Astro Teller, the head of Google X, was prepared to buy a spectrum for project Whye from big companies, but Larry Page objected, saying it was a huge hindrance to operators. Indeed, this is tantamount to a sign that Google will compete directly with global operators, but this is not the intention of project Whye.

As a result, Google decided to rent a hot-air balloon offering a wireless network to various operators to make it fly over which country's network. This maximizes the use of their existing spectrum, solves the problem of building a base station in remote areas, and achieves the goal of Google X providing fast and stable wireless networks for more regions around the world.
