Abstract

In this paper, we consider broadband satellite networks using MF-TDMA (Multi-Frequency Time Division Multiple Access) scheme. We analyze the number of expected lost packets in each terminal, and mathematically formulate optimal buffer and timeslot allocation model to minimize the weighted sum of the numbers of expected lost packets. We also suggest optimal buffer and timeslot allocation scheme based on Lagrangean relaxation technique to solve the proposed model in a fast time. Extensive experiments show that the proposed scheme provides encouraging results.
