Abstract: A base station is provided. The base station includes a base band unit and one or more remote radio heads, a satellite-based content delivery network (S-CDN) device, and a local serving gateway (LS-GW). The base station unit and the one or more remote radio heads wirelessly communicate with a user equipment. The S-CDN device receives and caches content from a satellite-based content delivery network. The LS-GW is connected to the S-CDN device and the base band unit. The LS-GW receives a request for content from the user equipment, determines whether the content is already stored in the S-CDN device, and when the content is already stored in the S-CDN device, delivers the content to the user equipment from the S-CDN device.

Abstract: A telecommunications satellite including a receiver that receives a first stream of data packets transmitted by a first transmission site and a second stream of data packets transmitted by a second transmission site, a stream analyzer that aligns the data packets in the first stream and the data packets in the second stream, analyzes corresponding data packets in the first stream and the second stream to identify missing or corrupted data packets, and selects data packets to place into forward transmission based upon the analysis, and a transmitter that transmits the selected data packets to at least one receive site.

Abstract: A method of delivering content, via a satellite, from a content server to one or more tower sites of a mobile operator network or locations with caching functions, the method including using satellite bandwidth of the satellite to transmit content to one or more tower sites of a mobile operator network, transmitting the content to the one or more tower sites or locations with caching functions using a combination of wide and spot beams based on locations of the one or more tower sites, and receiving distribution rules, with respect to the content, within computing resources on the downlink side of the transmission path in cloud-based architecture, and comprises transmitting the content to the one or more tower sites or caching locations based on the aggregated, received distribution rules and policies with further distribution to mobile devices.

Abstract: A method of transmitting bursty data and non-bursty data, the method including using terrestrial networks to transmit the non-bursty data and sharing satellite bandwidth to transmit the bursty data from multiple sites. The non-bursty data and the bursty data are transmitted concurrently via the terrestrial networks and the satellite bandwidth, respectively. The bursty data is non-voice data with bursty characteristics.
Abstract: Provided are systems and methods for minimizing co-channel interference on-board a satellite. An up-link signal received by the satellite is post-compensated, where the up-link signal includes a desired signal transmitted by a first transmitter and an interfering signal transmitted by a second transmitter. The post-compensating includes identifying the interfering signal based on post-compensation parameters. In addition, a down-link signal to be transmitted from the satellite to a receiver is pre-compensated.
