چکیده

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 of this paper is to survey the basic concepts of LEO satellite networks and the handover research.

On Call Admission Control and Handover Management in Multimedia LEO Satellite Systems

Low earth orbit (LEO) satellite systems gained considerable interest in the past decade and were expected to be instrumental in future telecommunications systems. Nevertheless, the first two LEO satellite networks that are currently in operation have not come to fruition on account of the limited spectrum of services that they provide. In this context, future LEO satellite networks will be gear...

QoS handover management for multimedia LEO satellite networks

Low earth orbit (LEO) satellite systems gained considerable interest towards the end of the previous decade by virtue of some of the appealing features that are endowed with, such as low propagation delay and the ability to communicate with handheld terminals. However, after the limited commercial success of the first networks of this kind, future satellite networks are now conceived as complem...

Managing Connection Handover in Satellite Networks

The Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks require a reliable handover re-routing protocol that is critical for connections with multihop intersatellite links (ISLs). In this paper, we introduce a footprint handover re-route protocol (FHRP) that maintains the optimality of the initial route without performing a routing algorithm after satellite handovers. Furthermore, the FHRP handles the int...

Effects of Some Parameters on Thermal Control of a LEO Satellite

Satellite thermal control ensures safe operating temperature ranges for satellite components throughout the mission life. Effects of altitude, spin, and position of satellite radiator(s) on the thermal control of a small Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite have been studied. Results show that change in satellite altitude, in the range considered here, does not produce critical thermal conditions. H...

A new spotbeam handover management technique for LEO satellite networks

AbstmctThe geographical connection admission control (GCAC) algorithm is introduced for low earth orbit LEO) satellite networks. The GCAC scheme estimates the L u r e handover blocking probability of a new call attempt based on the user location database, in order to decrease the handover blocking. By simulation, it is shown that the proposed GCAC scheme guarantees the handover blocking probabi...
