Abstract
A system of optimizing communications of a plurality of wireless mobile units over a ground coverage area includes a plurality of airborne wireless base stations each fixed over a designated portion of the ground coverage area. Each base station can be raised or lowered in in accordance with communications needs of the wireless mobile units registered with each base station. Each base station has at least one antenna that provides a coverage cone below the wireless base station and results in the designated coverage area having a ground size dependent upon altitude. A controller is adapted to receive parameters relating to the communications between the wireless mobile units and the wireless base stations and to determine a desired altitude for each of the wireless base stations to optimize the communications.
