The timing channel is the logical communication link established between a sender and a receiver in which the information flowing is encoded in the timing between events. Accordingly, information can be transferred by means of the transmitted packets, the time interval between such transmissions, and the size of the packets. In wired networks approaches using the timing channel can lead to a small increase in the overall communication capacity. In wireless networks with strict power constraints, instead, these can lead to significant performance improvements. In this paper attention is focused on powerconstrained satellite networks where there is a large amount of bandwidth which cannot be used because the power required for operations executed on-board the satellite is much higher than what is available. In such scenarios the use of the timing channel can significantly improve the overall capacity of the system. In this paper a methodology is introduced which allows exploitation of the timing channel in power-constrained satellite networks and an analytical framework is derived for its assessment. Numerical results show that the proposed approach can achieve much higher capacity than what can be theoretically achieved without using the timing channel.

“…Satellite communication as a complex form of communication provides users the global network services with many multimedia services and is crucial in the case of damage to traditional ground technical infrastructure. As the main benefits of using satellite systems can be mentioned [20]: (1) the quickest, cheapest and least invasive way to build regional, intercontinental and global networks; (2) the ability to use links wherever this is not possible using traditional links because of: (2a) the lack of terrestrial technical infrastructure; (2b) the lack of coverage of traditional means of communication (cable and radio links); or (3) it is not economically viable; (2) easy installation and reconfiguration of the system; (3) continuous operation in crisis situations when terrestrial technical infrastructure is damaged, e.g. due to an earthquake; (4) the ability to work in many modes (including point-tomultipoint mode).…”

Many risks as a result of accidents, catastrophes and natural disasters can contribute to crisis situation, which according to the definition means a set of circumstances, both external and internal, that affect a given system through changes. Crisis situations are usually the result of natural disasters. Where such phenomena occur, it is important to ensure communication both at regional and national level. This is particularly important in areas affected by disasters caused by force majeure, such as earthquakes. The main aim of the article is to provide an overview of the architecture of contemporary information systems including satellite links, in order to present information on the potential possibilities of their use in the case of crisis situations.

Modern satellite VSAT networks can be applied not only to provide satellite radio and television broadcasting, but also to other domains, such as a two-way Internet access. For this objective it has become necessary to develop appropriate standards and data transmission techniques. An unquestionable advantage of satellite systems is reception range, which translates into possibility of building networks in almost any place on Earth. Depending on the application, such networks can use many topologies. The aim of the article is to review distributed information in this area, as well as to determine the directions of development of the next generation VSAT networks. For this purpose, the literature review has been provided, with due regard to the IEEE Xplore digital library databases, and supported by practical examples.
