An Effective Routing Algorithm for Low-earth Orbit Satellite Networks
A new routing algorithm for Low-earth orbit (LEO) satellite networks is designed in this study. For this reason genetic algorithms are used. A new objective function is obtained to find the suitable path according to the criteria of the delay and an aging factor. Also Call Blocking Probabilities (CBPs) are considered due to the dynamic nature of the satellite systems. This dynamic routing type ...

متن کاملA Modular Small Satellite Bus for Low Earth Orbit Missions
The paper describes how the design philosophy used on the UoSAT spacecraft has been advanced to produce a bus providing basic power conditioning, telecommand, telemetry and attitude control functions. This basic bus is sufficient to support a variety of payloads, but the architecture is such that bus may be expanded (for example in number of telecommands) to support more demanding payloads. The...
متن کاملStaged Deployment of Communications Satellite Constellations in Low Earth Orbit
The “traditional” way of designing constellations of communications satellites in low Earth orbit is to optimize the design for a specified global capacity. This approach is based on a forecast of the expected number of users and their activity level, both of which are highly uncertain. This can lead to economic failure if the actual demand is significantly smaller than the one predicted. This ...
متن کاملHandover Management in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) Satellite Networks
Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks will play an important role in the evolving information infrastructure. Satellites in the low earth orbits provide communication with shorter end-to-end delays and efficient frequency usage. However, some problems need to be solved before LEO satellite systems can be successfully deployed. One of these problems is the handover management. The objective o...
