Abstract:In this paper, a reliable data transfer protocol based on UDP/IP for the Satellite Broadcasting environment is addressed. Since the satellite transmission network can only transfer the data below the network layer, concentration of the protocol design is the transport layer and application layer. Satellite Broadcasting provides simplex communication mode, so UDP protocol is chosen in the transport layer and the FTP-like is used in the application layer. The protocol was validated in the LAN simulating the Satellite Broadcasting Environment.
