Abstract

We present an analytical model for computing call blocking probabilities in a LEO satellite network that carries voice calls. Both satellite-fixed and earth-fixed constellations with inter-orbit links and hand-offs are considered. The model is analyzed approximately by decomposing it into sub-systems. Each sub-system is solved in isolation exactly using a Markov process, and the individual results are combined together through an iterative method. Numerical results demonstrate that our method is accurate for a wide range of traffic patterns.
