Networking issues in IP multicast over satellite
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper describes the issues that arise when using satellites for IP multicast, with the emphasis on multicast protocols and how their implementation depends on the satellite communications platform. Various link layer standards such as DVB-S, DVB-RCS and ATM can be used in satellites with onboard processing, and applied to meet user and network requirements for IP multicast. The paper provides an overview of the networking issues and their interactions. Specifically, we show how multicast networking protocols have to be modified to take into account the satellite link characteristics: these protocols include IGMP, multicast routing protocols and reliable multicast protocols. We also discuss how security systems support IP multicast.

Ip Multicast over Satellite
Satellites have been very successful for digital broadcast, and it is a natural step to develop IP multicast over satellite to explore the potential of the satellite systems. This paper discusses the issues of IP multicast over satellite, based on IP multicast protocols using different satellite communications systems including DVB-S and DVB-RCS. The paper provides an overview of the networking...
متن کاملIP routing issues in satellite constellation networks
The growth in use of Internet-based applications in recent years has led to telecommunication networks transporting an increasingly large amount of Internet Protocol (IP)-based traffic. Proposed broadband satellite constellation networks, currently under development, will be required to transport IP traffic. A case can be made for implementing IP routing directly within the constellation networ...
متن کاملReliable multicast via satellite: a comparison survey and taxonomy
IP multicasting is an important service, which will be provided by the next generation Internet. A range of applications has emerged which take advantage of multicast delivery. However, several factors currently hinder large-scale deployment of terrestrial multicast services. It is particularly difficult to support delivery to large groups of users. Satellites offer a natural way to extend the ...
متن کاملTransport protocols in multicast via satellite
In a wide variety of broadband applications, there is a need to distribute information to a potentially large number of receiver sites that are widely dispersed from each other. Communication satellites are a natural technology option and are extremely well suited for carrying such services because of the inherent broadcast capability of the satellite channel. Despite the potential of satellite...
متن کاملSecurity Issues in Internet Protocols over Satellite Links
* This work was done within the project “Optimization of the Internet Protocols over Satellite”. This project was financed by the European Space Agency. Abstract Security is an important issue in IP over satellite, since an attacker can easily intercept such communication and can even corrupt the transmitted data [Noub98]. In the first part of the paper we address the implications of optimizing...
