In many countries, established carriers have market presence, licensed spectrum, legacy infrastructure, wired backhaul and network management capabilities, including billing. This is a major advantage they have over any new solution provider. However, the reach, coverage and quality of existing communication networks in local, regional, national and global locations is frequently inadequate. This is due to the absence, or failure, of towers, topographic dark areas, or insufficient capacity to meet customer demand.
Solutions with more persistent, and ultimately universal coverage are essential. 5G can provide a partial solution for high-density, urban locations but it is not a universal solution. The need for solutions which can complement existing networks is becoming more urgent. Such solutions may be multi-operator networks. If they can also address the existing challenges of bandwidth, deployment, scalability, network evolution, environmental impact, standardization and cost, they will be unbeatable. The demand for disaster proof wireless services is also increasing due to the increasing prevalence of natural disasters globally which places further urgency for persistent and universal coverage.
Sunlight Aerospace™ is a pioneer in Sunlink® high-altitude, long-endurance (HALE) drones and Sunfleet® airborne network technologies. The unique solutions that we’ve developed are protected by 57 U.S. and 15 international patents.
Our Drone Technologies
To carry significant payload, solar drones have trended historically too large of wingspans subject to stress and structural failure. Sunlight® has developed inherently stable and robust Sunlink® airframe designs scaled down for formation flight in swarms called Sunfleets with distributed power and functionality.
