Mobile satellites can be considered as the promising solution to the global IP network. In order to provide quality of service (QoS) in future networks, mobile satellite can be integrated with the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) to switch IP datagrams in the space. For such a network, new and sophisticated routing and handoff algorithms are essential. In this paper, a new scheme called adaptive path routing scheme (APRS) is proposed. It is shown that the APRS can provide superior performance for routing and handoff in mobile satellite networks compared with conventional schemes. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
