Performance Evaluation of TCP Based Applications Using Double Constellation Geo/Leo Architecture

Overview The implementation of an IP based worldwide network needs the availability of a very efficient satellite segment in order to achieve real global coverage. To this aim the satellite component shall provide flexibility and high link availability. Satellite systems based on the use of geostationary (GEO) or Low Earth Orbit (LEO) constellations suffer from their intrinsic limitations in terms of coverage or flexibility. Traffic requirements concerning broadband services are expected to be very uneven both in time and in space. To match this requirement innovative satellite system architecture, composed by a LEO segment to complement a GEO segment, has been proposed. In this scenario, the implications of using TCP/IP protocols must be evaluated to achieve real integration in the IP network.
