Abstract
Mobile satellite services are extremely important when continuity of service is requested while the user is moving over a wide area. A notable example is represented by live TV services, or more in general by the Multimedia Broadcast/Multicast Services (MBMSs) and its evolved version enhanced MBMS. In this paper, we present the combined use of multicast resource allocation schemes based on subgrouping and application layer joint coding to enhance the performance of live video streaming in mobile satellite systems. The reference architecture foresees a satellite-based long term evolution transmission using orthogonal frequency division multiple access in the forward link. The results show that the combined use of multicast subgrouping resource allocation and application layer joint coding allows high-throughput transmissions with satisfactory user quality of experience of the received video over different satellite channel propagation environments.
