Main contribution

The main contribution is an eBPF-based emulation platform able to represent dynamic LEO constellations and evaluate transport and routing decisions with FRRouting/OSPF. The study shows the tension between session robustness and the effective use of multiple paths.

Link with BoND1

The publication fits BoND1 through its focus on LEO satellite connectivity, scalable emulation and IoT/6G services that require continuity under mobility, handovers and rapid topology changes.
