LEO Satellite Backhaul: Routing, Handover, and Ground Segment Design

By James Relington

This book explores the foundations, challenges, and future directions of low Earth orbit satellite backhaul systems, focusing on routing strategies, handover mechanisms, and ground segment design. It examines the architectural components of LEO constellations, spectrum allocation, latency considerations, and the integration of satellite and terrestrial networks, while also addressing resiliency, scalability, and security in dynamic orbital environments. By analyzing technical innovations such as inter-satellite links, software-defined networking, virtualization, and AI-driven routing, the book provides a comprehensive view of how LEO networks are transforming global connectivity. It also considers critical aspects of sustainability, economic models, and standardization, offering a complete perspective on the role of LEO backhaul in the future of communications infrastructure.
