Dies ist das erste Buch auf dem Markt, das eine detaillierte Beschreibung der Zuverlässigkeitsfunktionen von Satellitensystemen bietet! Diskutiert werden IP über Satellit, verschiedene einschlägige Simulationstools sowie die Modellierung von Datenverkehr in Satellitennetzen. Verschiedene Routing-Strategien werden hinsichtlich ihrer Leistungsmerkmale verglichen. Auch Aspekte der Sicherheit kommen nicht zu kurz.
