| Why a blimp for 37 miles of coverage?
It seems a ground based tower would be able to serve 37 miles with less problems than a blimp. Now if the service area was the size of Texas, perhaps you've got something. But 37 miles????
Is the issue the transmission power required from the mobile device? With a tall tower (1000 ft), I wouldn't think line-of-site is that impossible over a distance of 37 miles. Even if a tower would only serve half that, four towers would still be cheaper than trying to keep one blimp aloft. No? |
