Abstract
This chapter presents an overview of possibilities for existing Satellite Communication Systems utilization to provide Internet of Things Services. It is shown that existing Satellite Communication Systems provide traffic transmission for Internet of Things Systems with Cloud Architecture. The propositions on possibility of Fog and Edge computing implementation in Satellite Communication Systems are proposed. The ways for Low-Earth Orbit and Geostationary Orbit Satellite Communication Systems modernization for Fog and Edge computing implementation for the Internet of Things Systems are presented. To increase the efficiency of IoT data processing and the reliability of Internet of Things Data Storage, it is proposed to generate an Orbital Cloud Data Storage in Geostationary Orbit, which consists of several Geostationary Orbit Satellites - Cloud Computing Data Centers. Methods for access provision to the Orbital Cloud Data Storage using Geostationary Orbit High-Throughput Satellites and satellites from the structure of Low-Earth Orbit Satellite Communication Systems are proposed. The issues of interaction between Orbital Cloud Data Storage and ground-based Cloud Data Processing and Storage Infrastructure are briefly considered. The orbital slots in Geostationary Orbit are proposed for location of Geostationary Orbit Satellites - Cloud Computing Data Centers.
Highlights
In the last decade, the Internet of Things has become an important component of modern info communications
The StarLink Gate Way Earth Station interface is connected to the Internet Backbone and Internet of Things (IoT) Smart Things information packets come to the Cloud Computing Data Center through this connection
To ensure the interaction of the orbital and ground segments of the IoT LEO Communication System, constructed with utilization of the CubeSat type of spacecraft and providing IoT services based on the modified LoRaWAN algorithm, it is advisable that the System Orbital Segment/Satellite Constellation will be connected with the ground Internet network through Gate Way Earth Stations (GateWay) Earth Station which should be added to the Ground Infrastructure of the IoT Satellite System
Summary
The Internet of Things has become an important component of modern info communications. According to Transforma Insights [1], the total number of active Internet of Things (IoT) devices in 2019 was 7.6 billion. The need to provide a large number of connections and IoT device traffic transmission has become the main driver for the development and implementation of a new 5G mobile broadband standard [2]. The development of the Internet of Things is constrained by the limited coverage of terrestrial mobile broadband networks, which ones for commercial reasons cover areas with relatively high population densities. It is possible to expand the area of providing IoT services by using the satellite telecommunication systems resource, with specified and widespread application. The purpose of this article is to present the overview of the readiness of existing Satellite Communications Systems to provide IoT Services, and describe potential directions for the development of this communications sector in future
