CALL FOR PAPERS

The objective of this symposium is to provide a forum for researchers and technologists to present new ideas and contributions in the form of technical papers, panel discussions as well as online demos of service applications or technologies related to the future satellite communication networks in the new millennium. This symposium also intends to bring together various satellite network systems developers to discuss the current status, technical challenges, standards, fundamental issue, and future services and applications in the form of workshops and tutorials. Satellite will have a major role in providing a global interconnectivity for the next generation wireless networks where the IP and high-speed broadband applications are the dominant services. The symposium aims to conduct a closed technical coverage of the role of satellite in future IP networks and the possibility of the usage of ATM as the switching technology for onboard switching and processing as well as routing.

The topics of interest include but are not limited to the following: 
 

Emerging Satellite Systems  Satellite Network Architectures (GEO, LEO, MEO) Inter-Satellite Links Ka-Band Satellite Communications Services and Applications Multiple Access Media Access Control Protocols Traffic Management Traffic Characterization on Modeling Quality of Service (QoS) models IP Protocols for Satellite Voice over IP over Satellite ATM TCP/IP Performance over Satellite New Transport Protocols for Satellite Network Control and Management

Wideband Wireless Access Networks Routing Protocols Hybrid Satellite and Terrestrial Networks Related Standards Status (ITU, ATM Forum, ETSI, TIA and IETF) Mobile Satellite Communications Simulation and Modeling of SATCOM Networks Broadcasting Satellites On-Board Processing and Switching Internet Services over Satellite Advances in Coding for Satellite Communications Modulation Schemes for Satellite Resource Allocation Algorithms Link Performance Models Advances in Antenna Technology Reservation Protocols for Satellite Access

Instructions for Authors

Technical papers should be submitted to the Globecom2001 Committee following the general Globecom submission process and instructions (see Call-for-Papers). In order to ensure that your paper is properly routed to this Symposium, it is VERY IMPORTANT that you explicitly identify "Symposium on Future Satellite Communications for Global IP and ATM Networking" as the intended symposium to which you are submitting the paper. Failure to do so may result in your paper being forwarded to another symposium.
