Description
Summary:Diversified interest in the low-cost broadband satellite has overgrown to support a wide range of services in the satellite network. There is a need to explore alternative parts of optical communication towards Light Fidelity (LiFi) to offload the overcrowded radio frequency segments and improve the overall throughput. Ad hoc networks are the most suitable solution to provide a non-trivial challenge towards system design due to efficiency and quality of service (QoS). Both contention and congestion issues can severely affect the performance of a multicast network where video streaming becomes part of the day-to-day life. In this paper, we present network congestion characterization related to LiFi and High Throughput Satellite (HTS) under the Ka-band modulation schemes during adverse weather conditions in the tropical region. The heterogeneous network performance presented in this paper comprehensively provides systematic information for Satellite communication (SatCom) & LiFi and optimization of throughput by reducing network contention ratio. The measurement results have shown that when Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) policy is applied, an improvement of 80.26% in the packet delivery ratio is achieved as compared when without a DPI policy. However, using an on-premise Software-defined-wide access network (SD-WAN) alone provides 58.20% improvement in the overall network system. As a result, DPI provides a well managed QoS approach to manage the entire hybrid network, mainly in the tropical environment region.
