This paper describes an innovative receiver architecture for the satellite-based Automatic Identification System (AIS). The receiver performance has been fully validated in the presence of the typical satellite channel characteristics. In particular, it is shown that the devised receiver provides an excellent performance against the noise, as well as a large resilience against message collisions,...
The increased interest around the concept of "physical layer network coding" has generated a whole range of different technical solutions to implement it, which tradeoff complexity at the different elements of the network. While the effectiveness of this concept has been safely established for the two way relay channel, far less investigation has touched more sophisticated topologies, neither...
In this paper we extend the analysis of by comparing delay in protocols using retransmission and packet encoding for bidirectional unicast communication over a satellite channel, where the signal propagation delay is significant. We derive results on the total sender-receiver delay based on analysis and computer simulation for a Bernoulli packet arrival distribution.
Mobile terminals communicating through satellite suffer from low channel quality due to the combination of slow and fast fading and limited battery power. Moreover, the advanced applications proliferating over such terminals forbids the use of feedback based packet retransmission schemes over satellite due to their high latency, exceeding three times the round trip time. These feedback based packet...
In this paper, we examine different database synchronization/replication strategies and compare their suitability for satellite links in terms of latency and exchanged data volume. Earlier works have investigated the performance of these algorithms over terrestrial networks; however, the delay caused by a geostationary satellite has not been taken into account yet. A test-bed emulating a satellite...
We propose and analyze two strategies to provide different levels of quality of service (QoS) to the DVB-SH standard. An extension of the interleaving scheme is investigated to support low latency service requirements for interactive services based on short messages. The first approach is a straightforward extension of the DVB-SH interleaver scheme based on an early-uniform interleaver profile, and...
