Introduction :
 Satellites are an attractive option for carrying Internet and
other IP traffic to many locations across the globe where
terrestrial options are limited .
 The Sky X technology replaces TCP over satellite link with

a protocol optimized for the high loss and bandwidth
conditions of the typical satellite communication.
 Adding the Sky X system to a satellite network allows users

to take full advantage of the available bandwidth
3
 The Sky X technology transparently enhances the
performance of all users on a satellite network .
 The Sky X increases web performance by 3 times or

more and file transfer speeds by 10 to 100 times.
 The Sky X solution is entirely transparent to end

users, works with all TCP applications and does not
require any modifications to end client and servers.

Why sky X-Technology???
Satellites are ideal for providing internet and private

network access over long distance and to remote
locations.
However the internet protocols are not optimized for

satellite conditions and consequently the throughput
over the satellite networks is restricted to only a
fraction of available bandwidth.
 Thus We need sky x technology to over come these

restrictions and to access maximum bandwidth.

WORKING :
 Sky X Technology Overcome TCP Performance
Limitations.
 Even though the TCP is very effective in the local network

connected by using cables or optical fibers by using its many
features
 But the satellite conditions adversely interact with a number

of elements of the TCP architecture, including it s window
sizing, congestion avoidance algorithms, and data
acknowledgment mechanisms, which contribute to severely
constrict the data throughput that can be achieved over
satellite links.
6
 Thus the advantages achieved by TCP in LAN's are
no longer effective in the satellite link.
 So it is desirable to design a separate protocol for

communication through the satellite to eliminate
the disadvantages of using TCP over the sat
 Sky X products increase the performance of IP

over satellite through a combination of protocol
connection-splitting, data compression.
7
 The Sky X gateway works by transparently replacing TCP
connections from the client and converting the data to
Xpress Transport protocol (XTP) for the hop over the
satellite link .
 The Sky X system delivers the Web objects to the Sky X

gateway on the client side of the satellite link where they
can be served locally when requested by the browser,
avoiding the satellite delay.
 The sky X client/server system enhances the

performance of the internet and private network access
over satellite links
8
XTP Protocol :
 Xpress Transport Protocol (XTP) is a transport layer protocol
for high-speed networks promoted by the XTP Forum
developed to replace TCP.
 XTP provides protocol options for error control, flow control,

and multicast mode.
 Instead of separate protocols for each type of communication,

XTP controls packet exchange patterns to produce different
models.
9
Characteristics of XTP :
 1> Error control

 2> flow Control
 3>Byte ordering
 4>Prioritization Issues
 5>Multicast mode
 6>Selective Retransmission
 7>Multi-packet handshaking
10
Multi-Packet Handshaking :
11
 The scenario above depicts how XTP can reliably set up a
connection between two user processes, transmit data, and close
the connection with a minimum of three packets .
 In this scenario, the source initially transmits packet (A) . At the

destination the header is examined and it is determined that the
source wishes to establish a connection
 The packet's data are then queued for transfer to the waiting
destination user process .
 After successfully transferring the received data to the host, the

destination complies by sending control packet (B) .
 This packet acknowledges the receipt of the data, and indicates

that the destination is also ready t o close the connection.
 On receiving packet (B), the sender emits control packet (C), and
closes its side of the connection — thus completing the three way
handshake.
12
Sky x-Gateway :
 The Sky X gateway works by intercepting the TCP connection
from the client and converting the data to the XTP for
transmission over the satellite.
 The Sky X gateway on the opposite side of the satellite link

translates the data back to TCP for communication with the
server.
 This architecture offers vastly improved performance while

remaining entirely transparent to the end user and fully
compactable with the internet infrastructure.
 No changes are required to the client or server and all

applications continue to function without modification.
13
 The SkyX Gateway XR10 is well suited to networks with
high latency, high bit error and asymmetric links.
 Designed as an remote device, it performs best at maximum

bandwidth with a single, very large FTP—and supports an
industry-best number of simultaneous sessions and
connection turnover rate.
14
Application :
 Used for Satellite communication.
 Used for accessing web in fastest speed.
 Used For data transfer, File Transfer

efficiently.
15
Merits :
 1> Increases web performance 3 times faster.
 2> Does not require any modifications to end

client and servers.
 3>Sky X Gateway provides fast, efficient, fully

reliable multicast file transfers.
16
Future enhancement :
 A product called XipLink which is under
developing will replace the Sky X.
 It is very much the same as the Sky X with

extra capabilities.
 It optimize all TCP/IP traffic, basically the link

itself.
17
Conclusion :
 Thus Sky -x technology is best suited for for

satellite communication using XTP protocol
and Sky x gateway.
 The Sky X system of a satellite network

allows users to take full advantage of the
available bandwidth
 It gives all features required for successful

data Transmission.
