METHOD FOR TRANSPARENT ON-BOARD ROUTING OF DATA PACKETS AT VERY HIGH BIT RATE IN A SPACE TELECOMMUNICATION SYSTEM USING A NETWORK OF AT LEAST ONE REGENERATIVE SATELLITE(S)

摘要

A method for transparent on-board routing of data packets at high bit rate is implemented by a telecommunication system comprising an origin transmitting station, a first destination receiving station, a second destination receiving station, and a plurality of at least two satellites. The origin transmitting station segments high bit rate data streams into coded or uncoded packets each having the structure of a coded or uncoded DVB-S2 baseband frame BBFRAME; and the origin transmitting station inserts, for each segmented BBFRAME packet, coded or uncoded, an on-board routing label of a single piece respectively associated with the coded or uncoded BBFRAME packet. The on-board routing label contains an identifier of the destination receiving station associated with the coded BBFRAME packet, out of the first destination receiving station and the second destination receiving station.
