Abstract(in English) Recently, much research attention has been focused on LEO satellite networks connected to ISL(Inter Satellite Link).A global network, covering the whole earth, can be developed if wireless and wired networks are seamlessly by TCP/IP protocol.However, being originally designed for wired networks, the implementation of TCP/IP on LEO satellite networks may give rise to some difficulties, such as dynamic propagation delay caused by handover and re-routing.In this paper, we propose enhanced TCP congestion control mechanism for LEO satellite network.Our proposal aims to attenuate handover problem with the use of IP header's TTL field.Our simulation results show how effective our mechanism is avoiding unnecessary fast retransmit and decreasing congestion.
