Development of mobile broadband interactive satellite access system for Ku/Ka band

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS AND NETWORKING, Issue 2 2006
Yun-Jeong Song
Abstract It is difficult to implement the broadband satellite Internet and broadcasting service for mobile environment. The paper presents the design and implementation of a mobile broadband satellite access system. In case of the system design, mobile terminal service is considered a critical factor than fixed terminal services, such as resource management, antenna tracking, weak signal recovery. In the paper, mobile broadband interactive satellite access technology system (MoBISAT) is presented. The system network, which is composed of a star network, consists of time division multiplexing-based forward link and multi-frequency time division multiple access-based return link. The MoBISAT provides both Ku-band satellite TV and Ka-band high-speed Internet base on DVB-S/DVB-RCS standards to the passengers and crews for land, maritime and air vehicles. The key factors of hub and mobile terminal are addressed for the design and implementation of the MoBISAT. Especially, the design and implementation of the return link demodulation method, resource management scheme and mobile terminal structure including mobile antenna are described.

Analytical approach to the optimal adaptation rate of reconfigurable radio networks

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS, Issue 7 2008
R. Fraile
Abstract Flexible radio resource management schemes are nowadays used within a wide range of systems. However, the optimal selection for their adaptation rate is still an open research issue. This paper presents an analytical approach to such problem, which consists in a combined analysis of the dynamics of the session-arrival process and the estimation of the mean traffic load from network measurements. From this study, it is concluded that both aspects pose an upper limit on the optimal system adaptation rate, being the most restrictive the one depending on the mean traffic load estimation. A specific procedure for deriving such limit on adaptation rate is provided. It is shown that the derived value directly depends on the mean service duration. The application of the whole analysis is illustrated with an example based on a set of measurements from a live network. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [source]

Simulation analyses of weighted fair bandwidth-on-demand (WFBoD) process for broadband multimedia geostationary satellite systems

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SATELLITE COMMUNICATIONS AND NETWORKING, Issue 4 2005

Abstract Advanced resource management schemes are required for broadband multimedia satellite networks to provide efficient and fair resource allocation while delivering guaranteed quality of service (QoS) to a potentially very large number of users. Such resource management schemes must provide well-defined service segregation to the different traffic flows of the satellite network, and they must be integrated with some connection admission control (CAC) process at least for the flows requiring QoS guarantees. Weighted fair bandwidth-on-demand (WFBoD) is a resource management process for broadband multimedia geostationary (GEO) satellite systems that provides fair and efficient resource allocation coupled with a well-defined MAC-level QoS framework (compatible with ATM and IP QoS frameworks) and a multi-level service segregation to a large number of users with diverse characteristics. WFBoD is also integrated with the CAC process. In this paper, we analyse via extensive simulations the WFBoD process in a bent-pipe satellite network. Our results show that WFBoD can be used to provide guaranteed QoS for both non-real-time and real-time variable bit rate (VBR) flows. Our results also show how to choose the main parameters of the WFBoD process depending on the system parameters and on the traffic characteristics of the flows.
