Description

The implementation of efficient techniques that utilize
multiaccess, packet-based Internet Protocol (IP) services over
transponded satellite channels will increase capabilities in the
near term and provide an evolutionary path for the
transition from current satellite communications (SATCOM)
systems to the Transformational Communications capabilities in the
future. This document provides the minimum set of functional
capabilities that ensure interoperability among modems supporting
IP services required to achieve this goal. Functional capabilities
are described for IP modems to support the following network
topologies:

1. mesh

2. hub-spoke

3. point-to-point.

A particular IP modem implementation needs to support only the
subset of these topologies and transmission modes that are needed
for its intended application. However, the intent is to define
these capabilities synergistically so that a single IP modem
design could support all of the network topologies and transmission
modes (burst or continuous). The functional capabilities pertain to
the standardization of a set of air interfaces and supporting
waveforms, a set of terrestrial network interfaces, logical
channel structures, control and management interfaces, and
protocols.
