PROJECT LOON

Project Loon

Introduction to Project loon

3G bandwidth
allocation with
max speed up to
10mbps.

R&D Project
of googleX,
funding from
alphabet
inc.

Business in providing free


internet access all over the
world.

Creates an aerial wireless


network using high altitude
balloons placed in
stratosphere.

Development ? How ?

developed
in 2013
wearable technology

Pilot test phase

networking & wireless


communication

project of googleX

funded by alphabet inc

Enclosed in box

weight: 10 kg

includes GPS for coordinates tracking.

RF Communication
systems
lithium ion
batteries to
store solar power
Balloon to balloon

balloon to ground

Air control system pumps in or releases air


from the envelope to control its elevation

Lets see its Workings.

Project Loon balloons float in the stratosphere, twice as high as airplanes


and the weather.
They are carried around the earth by winds and they can be steered by
rising or descending to an altitude with winds moving in the desired
direction.

signal bounces from balloon to


balloon, then to the global
internet

The Technology

How loon connects ?

Balloon to balloon network

Balloon to ground stations or workstations

communicate between 2.4 to 5.8 GHz


ISM bands

Special radio antenna

Range 40km square

Also requires users to install a specialized antenna the outside of their home to receive the signal from
balloon near their home.

Reception requires a specialized


antenna.
special antenna installed the
outside of home receives data
and decrypt the data.

User have to use google SIM card. Matter of business!

Pilot test ( june 16th ,2013 )

Development starts

New zealands south island

Experiment successful

30 balloons launched

PILOT TEST PHASE

N.B: Project-Loon is still in Experimental phase

Advantages

Disadvantages

Internet access to all terrain.


Cheaper data rates.
Cheaper infrastructures.
Faster and efficient connection.
Secure data.

Shorter life
Requires continuous monitoring.
Internet Privacy
Monopolistic tendency:

Political obstacle

Challenges

High cost architecture


spying and security threat
over data.
Facebook internet drone

Is this a common peoples project or business?
