Satellite Networks &
Architectures Branch

Our objective is to enhance, promote, and develop the use of the Internet
over space-based telecommunications networks in the National and Global
Information Infrastructure. In particular, to give NASA, other federal
agencies, educational institutes, and private industry the ability to fully
utilize and exploit emerging global broadband satellites and hybrid (terrestrial
and satellite) networks for their communications needs.

STS-51 launch of the ACTS Satellite.
To that end, we are actively:
- studying the effects of broadband, high-latency communications links
in Internet operation and performance;
- developing algorithms and techniques to enhance Internet usage over
hybrid networks;
- investigating emerging Internet software tools, developmental
languages, and techniques;
- participating in standards-making bodies.
