Exploitation of Information Centric Networking principles in satellite networks

This paper explores possible advantages of the Information Centric Networking (ICN) paradigm in a geostationary satellite network. We find out that, with respect to plain HTTP services, ICN makes possible to reduce the downstream bandwidth consumed for Internet access by better exploiting the temporal locality of references within requested streams of Web contents. We present an ICN satellite architecture, describe its peculiar mechanisms and assess our solution through simulations.
