Sanswire Floats 2A Technology Demonstrator, Hosts Presentation Covering Mid to Low Altitude Airship and Payload Capabilities
PALMDALE, Calif., March 14, 2007 (PRIME NEWSWIRE) -- Sanswire Networks LLC, subsidiary of GlobeTel Communications Corp. (Pink Sheets:GTEM), previously announced the successful completion of the float test of the Sanswire 2A Technology Demonstrator Stratellite(tm) on March 4. In conjunction with this test, representatives of Raytheon Company presented a range of additional security solutions involving synthetic aperture radars (SAR), infrared (IR) cameras, and secure communications.
Peter Khoury, Chief Executive Officer of GlobeTel Communications, stated, "The versatility and functionality of the Stratellite(tm) enables a wide range of communications and surveillance solutions that can be applied to a multitude of scenarios. Additionally, we are becoming more involved in the development of airships that would fly at lower altitudes but exhibit similar functional versatility."
About The Stratellite(tm)
A Stratellite(tm) stationed in the stratosphere, at 65,000 feet, will be able to provide state-of-the-art communications to areas that either do not currently have the infrastructure to support such services, or are unable to support a terrestrial-based infrastructure due to topography. Additionally, a Stratellite(tm) can be used to supplement communications services in areas where infrastructure has been damaged by natural or man-made disasters. Lower altitude, shorter duration airships more closely resembling the Sanswire 2A are envisioned to be able to provide communications in times of emergency or could be used for border patrol, surveillance, and as a communications bridge to naval battle groups or between ground troops.
