Altaeros and World Mobile will provide thousands of aerial base stations covering an area of ​​about 8,000 square kilometers, which together constitute World Mobile's ecological network.

World Mobile is the first network communication service built on the blockchain and jointly operated and managed by users. It cooperates with Altaeros Energies, the developer of the world's first batch of autonomous aircraft, to provide services for areas that have not yet connected to the Internet. Bring network communication services. Based on the cooperative relationship, Altaeros and World Mobile will provide thousands of air base stations covering an area of ​​about 8,000 square kilometers, which together constitute World Mobile's ecological network.

World Mobile plans to launch these aerial base stations across Africa to meet the network communication needs of hundreds of millions of people. Several of these base stations will start the network on Zanzibar Island, and the network communication will cover 100% of the island. World Mobile plans to deploy thousands of air base stations throughout the African continent, each air base station will serve hundreds of thousands of users, and each user on the ecological network will create a blockchain wallet.

The aerial base station consists of a helium-filled shell and high-altitude craft with stabilizing fins. The unique tri-series structure limits the movement of the airship in the air (pitch, roll and yaw) in order to effectively stabilize the telecommunications coverage and guarantee that the connection will not fall in or out. The airboat is connected to a movable mooring platform with built-in software that adjusts the airboat's position according to wind conditions. The onboard communications system uses beamforming technology (a technique that focuses wireless signals onto specific receiving devices) to allow 3G, 4G and 5G handsets to connect directly, and to nearby World Mobile air nodes via a hybrid spectrum.

Altaeros CEO Ben Glass said:"We are delivering modern infrastructure to billions of unserved and underserved people around the world. Our belief is: take business expansion and technological innovation as the core competitiveness. World Mobile is the perfect partner to realize our vision as they strive to bring connectivity to the unconnected around the world. "

Micky Watkins, founder of World Mobile: "The mission of World Mobile is to bring fast and stable network communication services to those who have not yet enjoyed the convenience of network communication, and to establish the first network service jointly operated and managed by users. With a leader like Altaeros Industry technology, and the values ​​​​and our highly compatible partners work together, which will make us stronger."

World Mobile is the first network communication service jointly operated by users. Their fearlessness in the face of unknown environments and technological challenges will help them scale heights never reached in the telecommunications industry. Together, World Mobile connects the world's billions of underserved people - empowering everyone to explore the world freely.
