ANALYSIS OF A MOVABLE BOUNDARY ACCESS TECHNIQUE FOR A MULTISERVICE MULTIBEAM SATELLITE SYSTEM

In this paper, the performance of a new movable boundary accessing (MB A) technique for future integrated services multibeam satellite system s is studied. The multiservice environment considered includes both as ynchronous and isochronous traffic consisting of video, voice, file tr ansfer and interactive data. The movable boundary access technique pro posed here will maximize the utilization of the up-link frame capacity . It is shown that the potential user population is substantially incr eased with the use of a moving boundary policy with minimal overhead.
