Springer - Routing and Quality-of-Service in LEO Satellite Networks

Explore the technical complexities of modern satellite communication with Routing and Quality-of-Service in Broadband LEO Satellite Networks. Published by Springer, this volume provides a deep look into the mechanisms required to support Quality-of-Service (QoS) strategies within low earth orbit environments. This book addresses the specific challenges posed by the dynamic nature of satellite constellations, particularly how these movements affect link handover. It introduces a specialized graph model that represents dynamic topology using a new parameter called lifetime. Readers will find detailed discussions on novel routing and resource reservation algorithms designed to minimize handover blocking probability. By implementing these connection admission control strategies, the text provides a framework for maintaining strict QoS requirements in high-speed broadband networks. It is an essential resource for professionals and students focused on the evolution of broadband networks and services in the satellite sector.
