Bandwidth allocation in a multiservice satellite network based on long-term weather forecast scenarios

Satellite communications  Bandwidth control  Fade 

The paper compares two alternative hierarchical bandwidth allocation and admission control schemes suited for the multiservice Ka-band satellite environment, where the attenuation of the transmitted signals due to bad weather conditions has a heavy impact on the systems performance. The two schemes are compared by using data derived from a real case study. The aim is to demonstrate that a high level control mechanism for the assignment of the satellite bandwidth to earth stations, which takes into consideration the rain attenuation probabilities of a certain geographical area, improves the systems performance, with respect to an assignment mechanism insensitive to the geographical fade probabilities.
