ETL Systems, a world leader in RF distribution equipment for satellite communications, is proud to announce its significant contribution to Avealto’s newly granted High-Altitude Platform Stations (HAPS) technology patents. This innovative technology represents a breakthrough in the delivery of telecommunications services to underserved and remote regions, addressing a critical global need for reliable connectivity.
A Groundbreaking Partnership
Avealto’s HAPS technology is designed to offer cost-effective, reliable solutions by deploying high-altitude platforms to relay telecommunications signals. By harnessing advanced engineering expertise, ETL Systems played a pivotal role in supporting the development of this cutting-edge technology.
Simon Swift, ETL Systems’ Engineering Director of Digital Technologies, was instrumental in the project. Swift brought his deep knowledge of the satellite communications (Satcom) industry to bear, helping to achieve the successful realisation of Avealto’s vision.
Commenting on the project, Swift said, “Avealto is an exciting and innovative company to work with. ETL looks forward to supporting Avealto throughout their journey to bringing their ideas into reality.”
Closing the Global Digital Divide
This collaboration reflects both organisations’ broader mission to address global connectivity challenges. With over 3 billion people still lacking internet access, the need for transformative solutions like Avealto’s HAPS technology is greater than ever. These innovations can unlock access to vital benefits in education, healthcare, financial stability, and equality for disconnected communities.
“ETL Systems development of our Telecom Payload has helped to bring us a step closer to closing the digital divide. Avealto is now ready to setup our factory in the UK to begin production of Wireless Infrastructure Platform vehicles.” Walt Anderson- Managing Director – Avealto Ltd.
While space-based technologies offer unparalleled coverage, reliability, and flexibility, no commercially viable solution has yet achieved widespread adoption in areas that are geographically, environmentally, or politically challenging.
Driving Innovation and Connectivity
ETL Systems’ partnership with Avealto reaffirms its dedication to driving technological progress and enabling global connectivity. Through collaboration and engineering expertise, the company continues to make significant contributions to bridging the digital divide and transforming the telecommunications landscape.
