SDN in the Stratosphere: Loon’s Aerospace Mesh Network

Hello new and old subscribers!

This week’s paper is SDN in the Stratosphere: Loon’s Aerospace Mesh Network.

The paper discusses one of the core technologies behind Loon, a project that provided internet for remote areas using a balloon-based mesh network. This mesh network faced unique challenges to maintaining connectivity, like ever-changing balloon positions and weather conditions.

The paper review is best enjoyed on the blog.

Until next time,
