Broadband Satellite Networks for Last Mile Technology
نویسنده
چکیده
Satellite networks have signi cant advantages over terrestrial networks. Satellites provide unique advantages such as remote coverage with rapid deployment, distance insensitivity, bandwidthon-demand, immunity to terrestrial disasters, o ering broadband links. Broadband satellite networks will play an important role in the rapidly evolving information infrastructure. However, there are several obstacles which need to be overcome so that broadband satellite networks can operate in full service. The objective of this survey is to present the state-of-the-art in broadband satellite networks by focusing on link access methods, error control schemes and TCP problems and to point out open research problems.
