The paper formalizes and analyzes the bandwidth allocation process over space communication systems modelled as a Multi — Objective Programming (MOP) in presence of Quality of Service (QoS) constraints. The reference allocation scheme considered is based on GOAL programming and is called “Minimum Distance” algorithm. The work proposes two different versions of the Minimum Distance scheme both aimed at assigning the bandwidth so to approach a noncompetitive situation as close as possible and at guaranteeing a fixed performance for each traffic flow traversing the space network. The proposals have been tested over a faded channel by using TCP/IP traffic. The performance evaluation is carried out analytically by varying the degradation level of the channel.
