Abstract
As we described in Chapter 1, ATM provides the backbone technology for satellite networks due to its major advantages of providing traffic management and Quality of Service provisioning for real-time and non-real-time services. This chapter describes satellite ATM architecures for fixed and mobile users including bent pipe and onboard processing satellites. Various traffic management functions and virtual source/virtual destination for ABR service and its performance, and satellite ATM security issues are described.
