Abstract
Over the last decade, the global volume of data exchanged through Radio Access Networks (RANs) has grown significantly. This trend, along with an increase in blackouts and power grid failures, has highlighted the importance of reliability and resilience in modern wireless networks. Typically, the Base Stations (BSs) in RANs are powered by the electricity grid, and in the event of an outage, they rely on expensive backup batteries. Once these batteries are depleted, the service they provide is interrupted. To address the potential interruption of RAN services due to power loss at BSs, we propose using a revolutionary and disruptive technology: High Altitude Platform Stations (HAPSs).
HAPSs can be equipped with solar panels and batteries to ensure energy autonomy, as well as networking hardware to operate as aerial RAN Base Stations (BSs)
