COST Action 272 “Packet-Oriented Service Delivery via Satellite” Ant Routing Concepts for Dynamic Meshed Satellite Constellations

We propose ant routing as a powerful means to enhance communications in meshed regular and irregular satellite constellations. Ant routing resembles basic mechanisms from distributed swarm intelligence in biological systems, and turns out to become an appealing solution when routing becomes a crucial problem in a complex network scenario, where traditional (deterministic) techniques either fail...

A Topology Control Strategy with Reliability Assurance for Satellite Cluster Networks in Earth Observation

This article investigates the dynamic topology control problemof satellite cluster networks (SCNs) in Earth observation (EO) missions by applying a novel metric of stability for inter-satellite links (ISLs). The properties of the periodicity and predictability of satellites' relative position are involved in the link cost metric which is to give a selection criterion for choosing the most relia...

A QoS-based Routing Algorithm in Multimedia Satellite Networks

Real-time multimedia applications impose strict delay bounds and are sensitive to delay variations. Satellite link handover increases delay jitter and signaling overhead as well as the termination probability of ongoing connections. To satisfy the QoS requirements of multimedia applications, satellite routing protocols should consider link handovers and minimize their effect on the active conne...

Performance evaluation of LEO satellite constellations with inter-satellite links under self-similar and Poisson traffic

lation study for the evaluation in low earth orbit (LEO) ellations, used for the of high-speed networks, is paper. The proposed model end the traffic process at the supporting successfully the f self-similar traffic sources , ach that has been considered an the well-known Poisson, munications. dy for the establishment of s (ISLs) and the design of the ace segments is presented and of the integr...
