Among currently active inter-satellite communication systems ... with the least amount of latency while taking into account link distance (maximum of 5,400 km), link duration (up to multiple ...

However, the spaceborne nature makes it seriously chained by inter-satellite link (ISL) constraints including the limited number of ISL ports per satellite and the constrained bandwidth per ISL port.

Abstract: A time-varying multi-ray channel model suitable for inter-satellite link simulation and performance evaluation is proposed aiming at the characteristics of the space communication ...
