Novel Resource Allocation Technique for DVB-RCS Compliant Satellite Terminals

Abstract

Abhishek Kumar Roy, Satyendra Kumar and Manoj K. Dhaka

Satellite communication is advantageous for several reasons such as broad coverage, small installation time of remote user sites, and network services in inhospitable terrains, where installing terrestrial infrastructure is costly. With the advent of broadband multimedia satellites such as Ku and Ka band satellites, multimedia services to the satellite terminals are gaining momentum. Digital Video Broadcast Return Channel via Satellite (DVB-RCS) is an open standard developed by ETSI which has further standardized, commercialized and solved the problem of inter-operability of Ku Band satellite terminals. Satellite bandwidth is scarce therefore treated as precious resource. In the present paper, authors aim to develop and realize the resource allocation techniques in return link channel for DVB-RCS compliant satellite terminals. The paper provides method for giving preference to real time application in terms of early processing of allocation request generated against the real time traffic to reduce delay and also provides method to avoid parallel connection arises due to transmission of terminal on more than one frequency at a time. Authors have realised DVB-RCS resource allocation technique and have given simulation results.
