Market Insights
High altitude platforms (HAPs) are airborne stations that are placed at an altitude ranging more than 50,000 feet from the Earths surface. These platforms typically operate in stratosphere which is way higher than the altitudes at which commercial aircrafts fly. Prime purpose behind placing these platforms in high altitude category is availability of larger coverage areas coupled with suitable wind speeds available at this altitude. The platforms are equipped with different payloads depending upon the desired application. These systems are also referred to as cheaper alternatives to satellites.

Based upon the product types, the market is segmented into airships, tethered aerostat systems and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Currently, UAVs segment accounts for the largest share, in terms of revenue, of the global HAPs market. Nevertheless, due to their extremely high costs and relatively lesser flight hours, most of the countries worldwide are now moving towards airships and tethered aerostat systems. These platforms are capable of staying aloft for several days with minimal maintenance required. Also, these systems are capable of carrying payloads weighing up to 2.5 tons. Airships also offer provision of mobility which makes its suitable for covering larger coverage areas. Thus, in the coming years, airships and aerostat systems segments are expected to expand substantially in the global market.

Competitive Insights:
The global high altitude platforms market is quite fragmented in nature with very few companies operating across all the three segments viz. airships, aerostat systems and UAVs. Nevertheless, the markets for individual products are competitive in nature with most of the players focusing on the betterment of their product portfolios. Most of the HAPs companies are located in the U.S., Israel and China. These companies primarily focus on acquiring contracts from the U.S. and China defense sectors which are among the largest consumers of HAPs worldwide.

Key Trends:

  • Adoption of tethered aerostat systems for delivering wireless communication services
  • Development of high altitude UAVs with longer flight hours
  • Focus on acquiring international customers for HAPs
  • Development of solar-powered HAPs

A HAP can be a manned or unmanned airplane, a balloon, or an airship. All require electrical power to keep themselves and their payload functional. While current HAPS are powered by batteries or engines, mission time is limited by the need for recharging/refueling. Therefore, alternative means are being considered for the future. Solar cells are one of the best options currently being used under trial for HAPS

Whether an airship or an aeroplane, a major challenge is the ability of the HAP to maintain station keeping in the face of winds. An operating altitude between 17 and 22 km is chosen because in most regions of the world this represents a layer of relatively mild wind and turbulence above the jet stream. Although the wind profile may vary considerably with latitude and with season, a form similar to that shown will usually obtain. This altitude (> 17 km) is also above commercial air-traffic heights, which would otherwise prove a potentially prohibitive constraint

Since HAPS operate at much lower altitudes than satellites, it is possible to cover a small region much more effectively. Lower altitude also means much lower telecommunications link budget (hence lower power consumption) and smaller round-trip delay compared to satellites. Furthermore, deploying a satellite requires significant time and monetary resources, in terms of development and launch. HAPS, on the other hand, are comparatively less expensive and are rapidly deployable. Another major difference is that a satellite, once launched, cannot be landed for maintenance, while HAPS can.
