Korea-Japan HDR satellite communication experimentations and demonstrations over Ka-band satellite ATM network

Abstract

This paper present the experimentation and demonstration results of Korea-Japan high-speed satellite ATM network using Ka-band Koreasat-3. This experimentation consists of two items - TCP/IP and MPEG-2 video/audio transmission over 155 Mbps ATM based satellite network. The goals of this experimentation are to measure TCP performance when the only standard mechanisms approved by IETF in order to improve TCP performance in the long fat network (LFN) are used, to derive the effects of quality for the high definition video stream when MPEG-2 TS is transmitted through a 155 Mbps satellite ATM link. With the results of this experiments, we demonstrated the ATM-based 3D-HDV (3-dimensional high definition video) over Korea-Japan high-speed satellite ATM network during the 2002 Fifa Korea-Japan world cup soccer game, at 10 demo venues.
