“…Our experimental results related to the Iridium network align well with the previous findings of other authors [3,13,15,17]. The average latency in SBD mobile-originated (MO) message transmission is about 10 s. Such a value is certainly significant enough to limit the application scenarios to the ones which deal with delay-tolerant data only.…”

“…In terms of the engineering design idea, [3] provides the closest setup to the prototype discussed in the present paper. The work describes an IoT system design based on ZigBee that uses the Iridium satellite constellation for remote monitoring and control purposes in remote Himalayan villages.…”

“…There are a number of IoRT application areas, in which satellite communication (SATCOM) is of primary importance, being the only feasible option of integrating a local data collection system into the global network—shipping, vessel tracking, marine engineering [2], smart grid [3,4], ecological monitoring, emergency management and medicine [4], earthquakes, flash floods, terrorist attacks and tsunami detection [5,6], oil and gas industries [7] and backhaul connectivity [3,8]. Other notable scenarios include the Internet of Underground Things (IoUT) [9], the Internet of Cultural Things (IoCT) [10,11], the Internet of Arctic Things (IoAT) [12,13] and security and military affairs (the Internet of Battle Things, IoBT) [14,15].…”

“…As a result, plenty of algorithmic issues are still being researched, with authors presenting new methods of channel access [27,28,29], modulation techniques [2,25], routing mechanisms [17,23,29], load balancing [23,29], data transfer algorithms and protocols [6,20,26,28] and methods of increasing network throughput [19,31], as well as schemes of reducing power consumption of the network infrastructure [19] and lowering the cost of message transmission [23]. In addition, new architectures [12,21,22,30,31] of heterogeneous IoT-satellite networks, including the ones based on long range (LoRa) [18,25,32] and Iridium [3,13,15,17,33] have been proposed.…”

In the absence of traditional communication infrastructures, the choice of available technologies for building data collection and control systems in remote areas is very limited. This paper reviews and analyzes protocols and technologies for transferring Internet of Things (IoT) data and presents an architecture for a hybrid IoT-satellite network, which includes a long range (LoRa) low power wide area network (LPWAN) terrestrial network for data collection and an Iridium satellite system for backhaul connectivity. Simulation modelling, together with a specialized experimental stand, allowed us to study the applicability of different methods of information presentation for the case of transmitting IoT data over low-speed satellite communication channels. We proposed a data encoding and packaging scheme called GDEP (Gateway Data Encoding and Packaging). It is based on the combination of data format conversion at the connection points of a heterogeneous network and message packaging. GDEP enabled the reduction of the number of utilized Short Burst Data (SBD) containers and the overall transmitted data size by almost five times.

The explosive growth of various services boosts the innovation and development in terrestrial communication systems for the implementation of the next generation mobile communication networks. However, simply utilizing limited resources in terrestrial communication networks is difficult to support the massive quality of service (QoS) aware requirements and it is hard to guarantee seamless coverage in far remote regions. Leveraging the intrinsic merits of high altitude and the ability of multicasting or broadcasting, satellite communication systems provide an opportunity for novel mobile communication networks with its tight interaction and complementary characteristics to traditional terrestrial networks. It is believed that the convergence of satellite and terrestrial networks can solve the problems existing in current mobile communication systems and make a profound effect on global information dissemination. In this paper, we make a comprehensive survey on the convergence of satellite and terrestrial networks. First, motivations and requirements of satellite-terrestrial network convergence are identified. Then, we summarize related architectures of existing literature, classify the taxonomy of researches on satellite-terrestrial networks, and present the performance evaluation works in different satellite-terrestrial networks. After that, the state-ofthe-art of standardization, projects and the key application areas of satellite-terrestrial networks are also reviewed. Finally, we conclude the survey by highlighting the open issues and future directions.
