Design of a reconfigurable satellite constellation

open access: yes, 2015
This paper describes a new method of design and optimisation for an agile constellation in low Earth orbit capable of rapid reconfiguration, with the aim of providing over-flights of multiple and varying ground-targets.Conventional spacecraft constellations are static throughout the mission lifetime and generally aim to provide either global or ...

MPLS-Based Satellite Constellation Networks

IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 2004
Nongeostationary satellite constellations with intersatellite links are a challenge for networking due to their continuously changing topology. In order to make maximal use of the network's capacities, special attention has to be paid to routing and traffic engineering.

Hybrid Configurations for Satellite Constellations

1998
Orbital configuration design for satellite constellations is currently based on strongly regular models, as they make easier the coverage analysis. This paper deals with the widening of these symmetry constraints, leading to the so-called hybrid configurations.

Satellite constellations in the ascendant

IEE Review, 1998
Geostationary orbit has been a home to communications satellites for more than 30 years. In this paper, the author investigates how, with the advent of the satellite mobile phone, they are now taking up residence in low Earth orbit.

An MPLS networking concept for satellite constellations

2003
MPLS has been designed for IP backbone networks and offers many possibilities to exert influence on traffic flows. Therefore it is an attractive candidate for use in broadband non-geostationary satellite constellations with their continuously changing topologies.

Satellite constellations for a multiple LEO satellite network

Electronics and Communications in Japan (Part III: Fundamental Electronic Science), 1993
AbstractRecently, research has been very active in communication networks that could service the entire globe by using multiple, low, earth‐orbiting satellites. This has been spurred on by progress in the field of digital communication technique, technical advances of satellite launching, and a decrease in the costs of small‐sized satellites.In this ...

Aspects of Satellite Constellation and System Connectivity Analysis

1995
Recent years have seen many efforts in the field of communication networks based on constellations of non-geostationary satellites. The paper addresses an in-depth analysis of these systems, from three different viewpoints: geometrical, transmission quality and network connectivity. The geometrical analysis yields the statistics for coverage, frequency
