Magister Solutions worked together with CNES to maintain SNS3
June 11, 2018
Satellite Network Simulator 3 (SNS3) is a satellite network extension to the Network Simulator 3 (ns-3) platform. ns-3 is a discrete event simulator for networking research licensed under General Public License v2 (GPLv2). SNS3 models a full interactive multi-spot beam satellite network with a geostationary satellite and transparent star (bent-pipe) payload. The reference satellite system consists of 72 spot-beams with an European coverage, 5 gateways and Ka-band frequencies. It implements the DVB-RCS2 – DVB-S2 standards.
This platform was initially developed by Magister Solutions in the frame of ESA ARTES European projects (AO6947, AO7476).
It is also promoted by CNES (French Space Agency) as a reference open-source software tool within its research and development studies and activities in the domain of satellite communication systems and networks.
