First end to end IPv6 DVB-RCS systems
Résumé
This paper presents the three different platforms
developed within the frame of the SATSIX European project
and shows live trials description and results. To prepare final
experimentations on the SATSIX platform (Q3 2008), satellite
emulation test bed is used to validate and to show performance
evaluations of several features. The major achievement of the
project is the validation of the first end to end IPv6 DVB-RCS
systems. Moreover, various innovative techniques are
demonstrated, either in the network (mobility, QoS) and access
(ULE, regenerative payload) areas. These techniques will
reduce the costs of future satellite systems and bring value
added services. Different IPv6 applications are used to handle
the corporate, collective and residential scenarios. Finally,
inter-connection test between WiMAX and DVB-RCS in IPv6
is also covered.
