Clearly that Google will become a communications carrier within a few months, obviously anytime and anywhere in the balloon and drone What is the future image of surprising net OK?



From a long time agoWill Google provide mobile line service in-house?Although it was rumored that it is,Mobile World CongressMr. Sundar Pichaai, who is senior vice president of Google at office of MWC,Google becomes a communication carrierI approved that.

Google's senior vice president Sundar Pichai is the one who oversees the most important services offered by Google such as Android · Chrome · Google Apps. Mr. Pichai said that it will start a new communication service with very small scale and features different from other mobile communication services.


In Google keynote at MWC held in Barcelona between March 2nd and 5th 2015, Mr. Pichai does not talk about the details of the service. However, as a strength of the service offered by Google, "Explain that cellular and Wi-Fi are connected seamlessly, and when connection is broken, it can automatically reconnect." It is reported that Google will start the service as a communication carrier in multiple media, "It will be limited to the US", but since it seems necessary to partner with a communication carrier to start the service, it is partnered with a communication carrier Then it is considered to start the service as MVNO.

Also, at MWC, Google is working on itProject LoonAnd project titan such as Project Titan were also reported.

Releasing the receiving antenna of "Loon" that enables Google to use Wi-Fi network connection anywhere using a balloon, part of the grand plan revealed - GIGAZINE


Google acquired a drone development company that can stay for a long time with a high altitude, what is its purpose? - GIGAZINE


Two projects are a balloon in Project Loon and a lightweight drone in Project Titan to build a mesh network in a wide range. The purpose of these projects is to provide an environment that allows Internet access to more than 4 billion people in areas where Internet access is impossible.

Project Loon started in 2013, initially struggling to develop a balloon that can stay upstairs for 5 days. The project succeeded in developing a balloon capable of staying in the air for more than 6 months at the stage of 2015 and initially built a mesh network with Wi-Fi, but recently the network using 4G communication technology It is clear that it is also going to build.

The following movie was published on March 2, 2015, The Verge has released the latest information of Project Loon.

Inside Google's wildly ambitious internet balloon project - YouTube


This is the balloon of Project Loon which is flying in the sky while becoming wrinkle.


It swells up to the maximum at maximum.


The surface looks like connecting a couple of vinyls, it looks like Mokomoko.


That's why I quickly infiltrated Google X Lab, where Project Loon's research and development is underway. In the past, Google Street View Car and others were also developed in the Google X lab.


Inside, we prototyped the Wi-Fi module prototype device hanging on a balloon.


It is old in order from the left, the most recent module is the latest module. It clearly shows that it is compact and lightweight


This is a solar panel for power supply. It sticks to the module hanging under the balloon and supplies electricity.


In Project Loon, hang the router at the bottom of the balloon and float around 10 kilometers above the sky.


In the case of a normal mobile network, users grab radio waves of base stations and make network connections, and switch base stations to be connected each time a user moves.



However, in the case of the mesh network of Project Loon, since the balloon is drifting in the sky, the balloon side moves and the feeling that the user switches the router to which the user connects.



A single balloon can cover 5000 square kilometers and 3 New York's vast areas.


If you look closely at the balloon, you will see that there is a balloon inside. Helium is put in the outer balloon and it is used to raise the altitude of the balloon. He adjusted the air with the inner balloon and was able to adjust the altitude of the balloon.


Basically balloons can only raise and lower altitude, so we will move on the air current of the earth.


Test flight using a prototype balloon from morning


A balloon whose outer balloon has deflated. Is it coming down to the ground?


A large number of communication modules in the Google X lab.


I actually create a prototype in the laboratory.



The following graphs have achieved a continuous cruising record of balloons launched from March 2014 to January 2015, over 180 days.


What we have in this hand is the prototype of a Wi - Fi module on a balloon


Inside is like this, this is the scene under examination as to how much the contents of the balloon are damaged.


In addition, Project Titan is scheduled to perform the first test flight of Drone within a couple of months, and the role of this drone covers the range that can not be compensated by the balloon of Project Loon. Since it is said that it is already building a network with 4G communication, it is not only "Internet via flying balloons and drones' Wi-Fi" but also "Internet via mobile phone base stations that move anywhere in the world" It seems that the ultimate Internet environment that can be searched using Google from anywhere at anytime is completed is not a distant future story.
