This PLTA platform has an electric propulsion system to cope with wind flow for position keeping and its thruster is driven by solar power acquired through solar cells. Solar energy is to be stored for night use in regenerative fuel cells. The study is focused on energy balance and hull structure analysis of the platform. This platform is particularly capable of conducting high resolution remote sensing and telecommunications relay. This platform can replace a number of ground-based telecommunications relay facilities and can guarantee reasonable radio frequency intensity enough to secure good telecommunications quality. The altitude where the platform resides is the least windy area in the lower stratosphere at a height from which one can have a direct line of sight on the ground within a 1,000km diameter range. The platform can also be useful to chase typhoons and to observe them from their births in the tropical regions.展开更多
