Traffic Characterization, Routing and Security Issues in High Speed Networks Interconnected through LEO Constellations

Overview Some important topics for the overall performance study of an integrated terrestrial and space satellite network were investigated and adequate techniques for their study were proposed. Traffic characterization remains a basic issue and a quite big part of activities in COST253 were devoted to the topic, aiming to produce very soon an effective simulation tool. Routing, in conjunction with its reliability aspect, constitutes another fundamental point for study, so big efforts were put on a detail research on this subject. The main selection criteria were clearly defined and the first simulation results offered a very helpful insight in the performance of several routing algorithms in non-GEO satellite networks.
