Abstract

The paper addresses the need of controling the access of terminals with guaranteed ressources on the high dynamic systems offered by LEO satellite constellations. A call-access-control scheme that guarantees the reservation of permanent resources of satellite constellations in \(O(\sqrt(n)\hbox{log}(n))\) time, where n is the number of user present in the system, is described. A tradeoff between computational time of call-access-control and optimization of the use of the spectrum is identified. Some experimental results are presented.
