LEO satellite networks play a very important role in broadcasting Internet and connecting remote places at the time of natural calamities. Routing plays a very important role in faster data transfer by taking shortest path. LEO satellite networks are the preferred choice due to less propagation delay and packet loss as compared to GEO satellite network. The multimedia applications and live tran...

As an initial step in exploring the opportunities afforded by the merging of satellite and terrestrial networks, Bellcore and JPL conducted several experiments utilizing Bellcore’s experimental Personal Communications System, NASA’s Advanced Communications Technology Satellite (ACTS) and JPL’s ACTS Mobile Terminal. These experiments provided valuable information on the applications, interfaces,...

0163-6804/99/$10.00 © 1999 IEEE e are in the midst of a global information revolution brought about by the evolution of digital technology. The enormous strides in digital technology and its applications have fundamentally changed the way in which information is generated, processed, stored, and transported. The resulting information infrastructure will produce profound changes in all aspects o...

Satellite networking is different from wired or wireless networks. The behavior and the performance of TCP/IP in normal wireless network as well as in wired network are different from one another. The TCP/IP protocol was not designed to perform well over high-latency or noisy channels so its performance over satellite networks are totally different. Each satellite networks/constellations have d...

This paper describes the approaches used by our team (MultiBrasil) for the Multimedia Satellite Task at MediaEval 2017. For both disaster image retrieval and flood-detection in satellite images, we employ neural networks for end-to-end learning. Specifically, for the first subtask, we exploit Convolutional Networks and Relation Networks while, for the latter, dilated Convolutional Networks were...

Network Mobility (NEMO) has been proposed to efficiently manage the mobility of the group of hosts that are moving together as a mobile network. NEMO Basic Support Protocol (BSP) suffers from the problem of inefficient route. A number of route optimization schemes have been proposed in the literature to solve the problem. The schemes are mainly based on four approaches – Delegationbased, Hierar...

The next generation global communication network infrastructure is designed to be all IP based supporting various heterogeneous core and access technologies for broadband and mobile user applications. In this paper, we discuss the trends of broadband satellite communication networks to meet the emerging aeronautical and fast train applications, and mobile users in providing ubiquitous global co...

Mobility management is required to ensure the session continuity for multiple IP-enabled devices onboard a satellite that hands off between ground stations. Network Mobility (NEMO) can efficiently manage the mobility of multiple IP-enabled devices that are connected as a mobile network. However, existing mobility management solutions for satellite networks are unable to route through intermedia...

Development of the past decade have confirmed that ATM technology has the potential of becoming the transport mechanism in many multimedia networks where high-speed traffic and Quality of Service guarantees must be provided. More recently, we have witnessed a surge of interest in Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellite networks with on-board ATM switches, which hold the promise of offering an econom...

Routing algorithm plays a critical role in determining the performance and reliability of a satellite network. Since the resources in satellite networks are constrained, it is a big challenge to find paths that satisfy all QoS requirements in a low cost for satellite network users. In this paper, a novel routing scheme together with two multi objective optimization routing algorithms-prior orde...
