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

Tags:
tcp - ip

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.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
