This talk will explore the potential of near-space platforms to enable global connectivity. These platforms, which fly at altitudes ranging from 300 meters to 20 kilometers, offer connectivity solutions for areas difficult to reach with conventional communication infrastructure, such as remote ground locations, maritime environments, and aerial vehicles. The talk will feature high-level theoretical analyses, experimental findings, and system integration initiatives.
