Low earth orbit (LEO) satellite broadband network is a crucial part of the space information network. LEO satellite constellation design is a top-level design, which plays a decisive role in the overall performance of the LEO satellite network. However, the existing works on constellation design mainly focus on the coverage criterion and rarely take network performance into the design process. In this article, we develop a unified framework for constellation optimization design in LEO satellite broadband networks. Several design criteria including network performance and coverage capability are combined into the design process. Firstly, the quality of service (QoS) metrics is presented to evaluate the performance of the LEO satellite broadband network. Also, we propose a network stability model for the rapid change of the satellite network topology. Besides, a mathematical model of constellation optimization design is formulated by considering the network cost-efficiency and stability. Then, an optimization algorithm based on non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II) is provided for the problem of constellation design. Finally, the proposed method is further evaluated through numerical simulations. Simulation results validate the proposed method and show that it is an efficient and effective approach for solving the problem of constellation design in LEO satellite broadband networks.

We apply a "sliding-window" Maximum Likelihood(ML) estimator to estimate traffic parameters On-Off source and develop a method for estimating stochastic predicted individual cell arrival rates. Based on these results, we propose a simple Connection Admission Control(CAC)scheme for delay sensitive services in broadband onboard packet switching satellite systems. The algorithms are motivated by the limited onboard satellite buffer, the large propagation delay, and low computational capabilities inherent in satellite communication systems. We develop an algorithm using the predicted individual cell loss ratio instead of using steady state cell loss ratios. We demonstrate the CAC benefits of this approach over using steady state cell loss ratios as well as predicted total cell loss ratios. We also derive the predictive saturation probability and the predictive cell loss ratio and use them to control the total number of connections. Predictive congestion control mechanisms allow a satellite network to operate in the optimum region of low delay and high throughput. This is different from the traditional reactive congestion control mechanism that allows the network to recover from the congested state. Numerical and simulation results obtained suggest that the proposed predictive scheme is a promising approach for real time CAC.

The key exchange protocols are very crucial tools to provide the secure communication in the broadband satellite access network. They should be required to satisfy various requirements such as security, key confirmation, and key freshness. In this paper, we present the guideline of security functions in BSAN(Broadband Satellite Access Network), and analyze the specification of the security primitives and the hey exchange Protocols for the authenticated key agreement between RCST(Return Channel Satellite Terminal) and NCC(fretwork Control Centre). In addition, we propose the security specification for a domestic broad satellite network based on the analysis on the analysis profile of ETSI(European Telecommunications Standards Institute) standards. The key exchange protocols proposed in ETSI standard are vulnerable to man-in-the-middle attack and they don't provide key confirmation. To overcome this shortcoming, we propose the 4 types of the key exchange protocols which have the resistant to man-in-the-middle-attack, key freshness, and key confirmation, These proposed protocols can be used as a key exchange protocol between RCST and NCC in domestic BSAN. These proposed protocols are based on DH key exchange protocol, MTI(Matsumoto, Takashima, Imai) key exchange protocol, and ECDH(Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman).

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.

In this paper, broadband wireless smart city network coverage was implemented targeting a city (Wonju) using the wireless mesh network. Through this, we could provide wireless network that can easily add network and be repaired easily and have high economic effect. In order to implement broadband wireless smart city network coverage, wireless mesh network has been designed through pre-survey of the region and appropriate selecting of equipment. In addition, the designed network is examined, evaluated and compared with existing network though simulation. The aim of this paper is to prove high cost saving effect of wireless mesh network and its superior performance and to suggest future oriented integrated network of Green IT though research.

The military satellite communication of ROK military, ANASIS is designed for analog data such as voice and streaming data. ANASIS cannot fully support ALL-IP communications due to its long propagation delay. The next generation satellite communication system is being designed to overcome the limitation. Next generation satellite communications system considers both high-speed and low-speed networks to support various operating environment. The low-speed satellite supports both broadband and narrow-band communication. This network works as the infrastructure for of wide-area internetworking over multiple AS's in the terrestrial network. It requires minimum satellite frequency and minimum power and works without PEP and router. In this paper, we propose a network operation structure to enable the inter-operation between high and low-speed satellite networks. In addition, we propose a data link protocol for low speed satellite networks.

Policy maker inevitably faces two restraints once they attempt to accomplish $4^{th}$ Industrial Revolution through development of Industrial Internet of Things(i.e. IIoT). One is to construct physical network by substituting old equipment and infrastructure into smart equipment and the other is to connect the physical network into national telecommunications infrastructure. Australia, as she proceeds National Broadband Network programme, has assembled all medium of telecommunications to provide every Australian premises regardless to its physical location by creating wholes-sale only carrier, NBN co. At the same time, Australian government also provides its own IIoT policy; Co-development and New-Development projects. Meanwhile, NBN co. has launched its own two communication satellites in 2015 and 2016 to replace the old satellite communication services depended on the other companies' satellites. This article, in the end, analyses the role of satellite communication in $4^{th}$ industrial revolution with case study on Australian policy.

본 논문에서는 국내 광대역 위성 액세스 망(BSAN: Broadband Satellite Access Network) 에 적용 가능한 보안 기능을 위한 가이드 라인을 살펴보고, RCST와 NCC간에 인증 및 키 관리 기능을 위하여 요구되는 주요 핵심 보안 메커니즘에 기술한다. 더불어 국내 광대역 위성 액세스망을 위한 가이드라인을 기술하고, ETSI 표준을 분석한다. 기종 표준안의 키 공유 프로토콜은 키의 신선도와 확신성을 제공하지 않는다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 키의 신선도와 확신성을 갖으면서 계산적 복잡도와 교환되는 데이터 량을 감소시키기 위한 세 가지 키분배 프로토콜을 제안하고 제안된 프로토콜의 특성을 비교 분석한다. 특히 이러한 특성을 갖는 ECDH(Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman)키 공유 프로토콜을 제안한다.
