Abstract:
Innovative new methods in connection with lighter-than-air (LTA) free floating platforms, of facilitating legal transmitter operation, platform flight termination when appropriate, environmentally acceptable landing, and recovery of these devices are provided. The new systems and methods relate to rise rate control, geo-location from a LTA platform including landed payload and ground-based vehicle locations, and steerable recovery systems.

Claim (Index 15):
A method for providing communication service comprising:\n providing a first lighter-than-air platform; providing a second lighter-than-air platform wherein the first and second lighter-than-air platforms each comprise an altitude regulator device and a communications signal transceiver and wherein the first and second sight-than-air platforms are configured to free float without any longitudinal and latitudinal position control; providing a plurality of communications devices within a contiguous geographic area, at least one of said communications devices having communications capability with said communications signal transceiver, wherein said at least one of said communications devices is capable of handing off communication with said the platform to said second platform as said first platform moves out of a communication range of said at least one of said communications devices and wherein said free-floating constellation communications system is configured to provide a line-of-sight wireless data coverage to a population on a contiguous landmass and said plurality of lighter-than-air platforms are configured to operate range of 60,000 to 140,000 feet there is substantially a relative distance between said plurality of lighter-than-air platforms.
