  • Abstract
    In this work, the performance of HAPs (high altitudes platforms) WiMAX is studied for different HAPs height h, transmitted power level and antenna boresight separation assuming a 7 cells network. The effect of the rain on the coverage zone radius is also studied. It is found that the coverage radius increases with the transmitted power increment and with the operating frequency reduction
