Hi Everyone,
Welcome to Intelligent Computing. As we stated in our Facebook Page update, Google is
about to launch the Hot air balloon service for accessing the Internet to
almost everyone and at faster speed. Its on the Way out and test balloons has
already been launched and tested in New Zealand.
Introduction to Google’s Project Loon
According to Rich
DeVaul (Chief technical Architect at Project Loon) everyone is not everyone
actually, there are lots of people out there who are intact from internet and
Main aim of Project Loon is
to deliver internet to really everyone. Yes regardless of local services or wired
lines in remote areas specially.
How Project Loon works?
Google’s Project
Loon is amazing architecture having network of wireless balloons floating twice
high as cloud or Airplanes, almost 40KM high, all are connected via wireless
networks and finally connected to one ground station.
Every user who wants
to avail this facility need to have special antenna, these can be fitted
outside the home or even in moving vehicles.
This is how Project
Loon is going to work.
- At the Altitude of 40KM there will be floating balloons powered by solar panels and derived by floating Air at that level.
- These balloons will be interconnected to form a wireless network with each others.
- Finally for a big area, there will be on ground station which will supply internet to one of these interconnected balloons and internet will be distributed over the globe.
- One balloon will be covering 40KM of Area from that much height.
Why this Project loon and for whom?
As already stated, for those who are almost not in touch with any kind of internet connecting media, especially in southern hemisphere, there are lots there. Google not only making people live like king on internet but also making them to touch internet and have the great advantage of it
Bottom line
Google is working great to connect everyone to technology and Google in this project uses the natural energy like Sun light and wind flow to do maximum light and even transmission of wireless signal that’s to save lots of energy and producing green communication.
