Modeling and evaluation of an aeronautical telemedicine service over satellite

costly. The key is therefore to establish an accurate assessment of the victim’s state and this is currently tributary to the presence onboard of a medical doctor and equipment. We propose in this contribution a network trac model for the deployment of an inight, satellite based telemedicine service. The purpose of the terminal is to support accurate remote assessment using a cabin crew member as operator. This contribution also includes an estimation of the network resources required for running the service.
