CA 2377958
an airborne constellation (10) is disclosed with a plurality of individual lighter-than-air platforms (12) spaced apart above a contiguous geographic area within a predetermined altitude range so that ubiquitous line of sight coverage of the geographic area is provided. Each of the plurality of platforms (12) includes an enclosure holding a regulated volume of low density gas for buoyancy of the platforms. Each of the plurality of platforms further includes a signal transmitting device attached to the enclosure by which signals from the platform may be transmitted to the contiguous geographic area.

L'invention concerne une constellation aéroportée (10) présentant une pluralité de plates-formes individuelles aérostatiques (12) espacées au-dessus d'une zone géographique contiguë dans une gamme d'altitudes prédéterminées de manière à obtenir une couverture de la ligne de visée ubiquiste de la zone géographique. Chacune des plates-formes (12) comprend une enveloppe contenant un volume régulé de gaz de faible densité assurant la flottabilité des plates-formes. Chacune des plates-formes comprend également un dispositif de transmission de signal fixé à l'enveloppe par lequel les signaux provenant de la plate-forme peuvent être transmis à la zone géographique contigüe.
