ASMS/SPSC 2016 brings together researchers from all over the world to discuss the latest advances in satellite communications and networking technologies, from advanced transmission schemes to novel random access schemes, but also reserving a particular attention to satellite system design and validation. Peculiarity of the ASMS/SPSC is thus to conjugate papers about the newest theoretical findings with others addressing specific design activities for practical implementation in the context of satellite and space communications. The technical program of ASMS/SPSC 2016 consists of 8 technical sessions, 3 special tracks, as well as 4 tutorials. The conference also features 4 keynote speeches, which will highlight industry and academic perspectives on satellite and mobile communications, putting particular emphasis on the roadmap towards 5G technology as well as the most attractive applications and scenarios for the integration of satellite technology. The result is a vibrant technical program for the entire duration of the conference, consisting of technical presentations of very high quality and invited talks given by brilliant and renowned speakers in the panorama of satellite and terrestrial wireless communication. We expect many discussions to continue outside of the technical sessions and believe that our venue and program provide plenty of space and opportunities, in that respect. We would like to thank all Panel and Tutorial Chairs, all the members of the Technical Program Committee, the numerous external reviewers for their dedication and last not least all paper authors, 7 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 who have contributed to make this conference a great success.

The group recently started working on the standardization of 5G. Tuesday 6th September @ 9:00, Room Auditorium Antonio Arcidiacono Eutelsat, Director of Innovation France New Satellite Architectures and Services: a Holistic Approach Abstract: In the design of new satellite system architectures, and of any new telecommunication system architecture in general, very often the focus of new proponents is concentrated on the advantages of one or a few elements in the value chain. This approach has many times led to the conception of new systems and services that have difficulties in finding a sound business thus limiting the commercial and financial return to companies investing in the new ventures. Historically a technology push coming from satellite manufacturers has very often been challenged by service operators looking for a good level of return on necessary investments and so far resulted in a continuous growth in the satellite market in the last decades. Much less attention has been dedicated to the development of innovative and cost effective ground segment equipment since the big manufacturers of chipsets and terminals are not interested in developing solutions for niche markets, like the one of satellitepowered systems. The only large-scale exception to this disadvantageous situation has so far been the one represented by 16 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 digital satellite broadcasting where DVB standard equipment and chipsets have been and are produced in hundreds of millions of units. When analysing the opportunity cost of a service for a specific market the overall costs including the ground segment and user segment are normally taken into account. You should also take into account the overall operational costs including licensing, marketing and product distribution strategy as well as operational cost related to the business model. In analysing, for example, the costs in a typical HTS system architecture you will easily discover that the total CAPEX at terminal and ground segment level is often equal if not higher than the one at space segment level. This becomes even more evident in the case of LEO systems where the terrestrial gateway network and in particular the end user terminal CAPEX dominates once the costs of self-pointing terminals are taken into account. To reduce the impact of the end user terminal costs the obvious solution proposed by some proponents is to use the satellite to feed wide area terrestrial gateways, 3G/LTE or future 5G gateways, and reduce in this way the individual CAPEX per end customer. As a result, you will have to take into account the optimization of a hybrid infrastructure, including operational and maintenance costs, to obtain a real advantage in terms of actual tariffs charged to the end users that should remain competitive with those of native terrestrial solutions. A similar cost structure has been so far proposed when dealing with alternatives to GEO or LEO based solutions and in particular in the case of high altitude balloons or platforms (HAPs) of various kinds. In both cases the very limited on board payload mass and power impose a more sophisticated and expensive terrestrial gateway terminal that should track the HAP and that should interface with a local wide area network gateway. For every system of these latter categories the presence of a local operator taking care of marketing and commercial operations for the proposed service(s) 17 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 is key for a successful service deployment. Its proactive interest in supporting technologies being part of the infrastructure under its control, become therefore key in helping the deployment of any of those services. A variation to the typical Telco approach is the one experimented by Facebook where they try to propose to potential customers a “free” service where only a subset of internet contents is accessible. In this way the overall business model can be sustained by the advertising revenues generated by the very large number of customers potentially attracted by a “free to air service”. This model has been so far experimented using “voluntary” terrestrial operators supporting Facebook efforts. Facebook has recently been challenged by the Indian government mainly because the actual return for any local entity becomes difficult to demonstrate. It seems therefore key to look for business models which provide enough local return to sustain part of the cost of the local operators. In the proposed presentation an analysis of some key architectures, combined or not with terrestrial infrastructures, and related advantages and drawbacks will be presented.

Wednesday 7th September @ 16:30, Room Auditorium Hans-Christian Haugli Space Norway Norway The New Maritime VHF Data Exchange System The Satellite Element Definition and the Norsat-2 SDR Satellite Abstract: The maritime Automatic Identification System (AIS) has been a great success and is used by more than 150,000 ships globally. Even though satellite reception of these signals was not envisaged, several satellite receive these ship transmissions and the messages are used by Costal Administrations and other entities to improve safety and efficiency of shipping. AIS is now extensively used not only for collision avoidance, but also for costal two way communications, and this traffic can in the future overload the system. The VHF Data Exchange System (VDES) currently being 20 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 defined by the International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA) is refining the ITU 2092-0 standard. VHF frequencies for the terrestrial part and two channels for satellite (ASM) were allocated at WRC 2015, additional frequencies for the two-way satellite will be addressed at WRC-19. It is expected that AIS and VDES will be combined as one piece of equipment carried by most commercial ships in the future to support a number of services related to electronic navigation. The presentation will address the VDES-SAT design parameters and considerations (physical layer and up) based on the latest updates from the IALA working group and the Norwegian Norsat-2 satellite scheduled for launch early 2017 which carries a VDES Software Defined Transceiver and an 8 dBi deployable crossed Yagi antenna.

As part of the continuous migration towards higher frequency bands, Optical & W-band waves offer the promise of unprecedented bandwidth compared to current commercial solutions, leveraging enough bandwidth capable to cope with mid and long-term requirements. Together they can realize extremely high speed avenues for space communications in inter-satellite and feeder link applications. This tutorial focuses on giving a thorough overview of the different aspects and challenges to be taken into account when implementing GEO feeder links in the optical domain and W-band waves, including physical layer, channel model, modem, satellite payload and system level aspects. Particular attention is given to the feeder uplink scenario, which—as part of the forward link—presents itself as critical for the successful 22 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 implementation of future extremely high throughput satellite systems. The tutorial will attempt to stress the practical challenges of these high frequency RF and optical technologies, proposing also ways forward in terms of necessary space and ground technology development, as well as open research directions.

Tuesday 6th September @ 10:30, Room AUDITORIUM Luca Canzian Qascom Italy Satellite-Based Interference Localization Techniques Abstract: Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) represents a serious threat for the satellite industry: it is the single most important operational problem affecting customer services on geostationary satellites, causing the SATCOM industry to lose millions of dollars per year; and it is classified as a major threat to navigation systems and their users. In this context, it is becoming of critical importance to design space systems that are able to localize the interference source, allowing taking actions (e.g., sending the authorities to the place the interference originates from) that can prevent future repetitions of similar behaviours. This tutorial will give an overview of localization approaches that are based on processing the signal sent by a target, covering aspects such as: 1) the extraction of basic features from the received signal, which define loci of points within which the target may be located; 2) the computation of a position fix from multiple loci of points; and 3) the challenges associated to a satellite based localization approach, with particular emphasis to a single satellite architecture. In addition to it, the localization results obtained with a software simulator developed by Qascom will be shown and discussed. Short Biography: Luca Canzian received the B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the University of Padova, Italy, 24 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 in 2005, 2007, and 2013, respectively.

Polyzos Athens University of Economics and Business Greece Information-Centric Networking for Content Distribution and Integration of Satellite Communications into the Future Internet Abstract: Inspired by the observation that the Internet is increasingly used for the dissemination of, or access to information, rather than for pair-wise communication between specific end hosts, Information-Centric Networking (ICN) is based on identifying content, or information, at the internetwork layer and employing information-awareness as the means for addressing a series of limitations in the current Internet architecture. The Publish-Subscribe Internet (PSI) architecture, a clean-slate ICN approach for the future Internet, was designed to satisfy current and emerging user demands for pervasive information delivery. 25 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 After a brief introduction to ICN in general, this presentation will provide an overview of the PSI architecture (developed through two European projects, PSIRP and PURSUIT) and will also present an overview of our current H2020 project POINT with goal to demonstrate commercially viable deployment of existing services over ICN. PSI provides native support for network layer caching, multicast, multi-path and multi-source transport, security and privacy, and seamless mobility, which make it an excellent platform for ubiquitous multimedia information delivery for the future Internet. We will also present as case studies support for a few different applications and environments. With video constituting the majority of all current Internet traffic and its share increasing, any future Internet architecture should provide tangible benefits for video and multimedia applications. ICN architectures were designed with the specific goal of improving content distribution on the Internet. We have considered and will discuss to what extent various ICN architectures are appropriate and ready for video traffic. We then will present how efficient delivery of real-time multimedia information can be supported in the PSI architecture, which places information at the heart of the network layer and decouples the forwarding, path formation and topology management functionalities. This design approach can be highly beneficial for real-time communications, as it enables the network to apply sophisticated mechanisms for multicast tree construction, such as delivery over optimal Steiner trees. Initial experiments with a proof-of-concept implementation of PSI indicate the feasibility of realizing such optimization policies. Our results show that significant bandwidth savings can be achieved at the cost of small, un-noticeable to the end-users, delays in flow establishment. We also consider and illustrate key functionalities and gains when using ICN, and PSI in particular, for integrating terrestrial and satellite networks, still a major component for multimedia distribution today, by jointly exploiting the advantages of each: transparent use of terrestrial multicasting and satellite broadcasting, content-based multipath transfer, and seamless mobility. Multipath content delivery with Quality-of-Service (QoS) based routing is a powerful technique, 26 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 offering bandwidth aggregation while keeping service latency low. However, the realization of multipath QoS routing in IP networks is not inherently supported and requires complicated extensions to network operation. On the other hand, the PSI architecture natively supports multicast, source routing and centralized path selection, thus posing as promising terrain for QoS routing. Finally, in modern access networks, ICN can be exploited in many ways to improve performance and robustness in a flexible way. We will briefly present two application scenarios that exploit key features of the PSI architecture: secure publication proxy and multi-source mobile video streaming. Short Biography: George C.

Wednesday 7th September @ 10:30, Room AUDITORIUM Ignacio Aguilar Sánchez European Space Agency, ESA The Netherlands William Halimi Thales Alenia France Secure Communications: a Pillar for the Protection of Space Missions Abstract: This tutorial will introduce the audience to secure communications as a fundamental building block of modern space mission security engineering. We will start with an introduction to security and security engineering as a systems engineering discipline. We will present the typical organization of security engineering methodologies. We will discuss the particular context of space missions and their security problems. We will break down the space mission security problem into its main elements: space asset, ground asset and mission products protection. We will shortly present the various types of missions like Earth observation, 28 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 telecommunications and navigation, illustrating the particulars of these mission domains with examples. We will focus on the communications between the space and ground segments, which play a critical role on mission operations and mission products delivery and, therefore, can be the subject of various threats. We will identify the most common security objectives applicable to these communication links and will detail the various security services with corresponding countermeasures implemented to protect the communications. In particular, we will present the data link layer (authentication, encryption and authenticated encryption) and physical layer (linear and cryptographic spread spectrum) security countermeasures. Cryptography and key management are fundamental complements of these countermeasures and we will discuss their main tenets. We will introduce relevant secure communications and cryptographic algorithm standards in support of space missions like the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS) Space Data Link Security (SDLS) protocol. This protocol provides a modular add-on security service to the very popular CCSDS Telecommand (TC), Telemetry (TM) and Advanced Orbiting Systems (AOS) space link protocols. To conclude we will outline current directions of space mission security research of interest like physical layer security and network security, the latter very relevant for future constellations with intersatellite links. Furthermore, we will outline the ongoing work on SDLS extension. As a complement of this tutorial we will provide ample bibliography for those participants interested in further pursuing the study of this fascinating engineering discipline. Short Biography: Ignacio Aguilar Sanchez received a M.Sc. in Telecommunications Engineering from Polytechnic University of Catalonia, Barcelona, Spain in 1986 and an MBA from the Open University, United Kingdom in 1997. He has been with ESA for more than 20 years. He is a Communications Security expert at ESTEC. He has been involved with the definition and development of TC and 29 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 TM communications security solutions for a number of ESA projects (GALILEO, Copernicus Sentinels 1 to 3, SEOSAT, Meteosat Third Generation, ARTES, MetOp Second Generation). He has supervised research and development activities concerning security functions both at radio and data level. Prior to this he was the lead Communications System Engineer for the Automated Transfer Vehicle (ATV) during its design and development phase. This mission included a TC Security function as well as spread spectrum communications. Before he had organized and conducted In-Orbit Testing for an ESA Telecommunications Payload. He started his career with ESA on the HERMES project as a Reliability and Safety Engineer. William Halimi received the Electronic Engineer Diploma from the ENSEEIHT high school of Toulouse FRANCE in 1979. He works since 20 years in Thales Alenia Space (TAS) in Toulouse, on Satellite / Ground communications links security. As TAS France security engineering group manager, he has been technical lead for most Telecommunication & Observation space data links authentication and/or encryption systems designed & developed by TAS. He has driven some R&T Security study with CNES (2009 and 2014) and presented security contributions to last ESA TTC workshops (2007, 2010 and 2013). 30 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 Special Tracks Monday 5th September / Tuesday 6th September @ 10:30, Room LLULL Constantinos Papadias Athens Information Technology (AIT), Greece Tinku Rasheed CREATE-NET Research Center, Italy ST1: Hybrid Terrestrial Satellite Networking and Services The continuously growing volume of mobile data, further assisted by the densification of base stations & access points places an increasingly heavy burden on the backhaul segment of the network. Leveraging the satellite segment as a way to relieve some of this burden is an approach that has been recently gained traction. For example, LTE/4G access served by satellite backhaul has been recently demonstrated, leading to a growing consensus that satellites should be part of the 5G networks. This vision is further exacerbated by the broadband and broadcast capabilities of satellites, as well as their wide area coverage that enables access at affordable cost and disaster resilience. Based on the above, this proposed special track is focused around the concept of hybrid satellite / terrestrial networks that can serve jointly and in a better way the increasing backhauling needs of current, emerging and future mobile networks. Given the immaturity of the field, a number of key issues have yet to be explored, ranging from the required network architecture to the modelling of the involved channels (at 18GHz and 28 GHz) and interference, to the development of interference avoidance / mitigation techniques, possibly assisted by antenna arrays, to the definition of network virtualization and software defined networking for better end-toend service provisioning. 31 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 The proposed special session is fueled by a number of recent results in two EU (H2020) research projects that are active in these research areas: SANSA (www.sansa-h2020.eu), which focuses on ensuring high capacity and resilience of these types of hybrid networks assisted by advanced antenna systems and VITAL (www.ictvital.eu), which targets SDN- based, federated resource management for a unified control plane that would allow operators to efficiently manage and optimise the operation of hybrid SatComTerrestrial networks. Monday 5th September @ 14:00, Room LLULL Alberto Ginesi European Space Agency (ESA), The Netherlands Ana Isabel Pérez-Neira University Politècnica de Catalunya (UPC) / Centre Tecnològic de Telecomunicacions de Catalunya (CTTC), Spain ST2: Ubiquitous Broadband Access The satellite telecommunication market is currently living a technology revolution thanks to the success of High Throughput Satellites (HTS). The need for high speed interconnectivity everywhere on the planet is driving the satellite operators to very advanced technical solutions both at satellite and ground segment level. In particular, the need to provide a cost competitive high throughput connectivity to a wide geographical area with a typical large traffic spatial and temporal variability, is driving the system design to new paradigms in terms of flexibility of the resources as well as satellite design and production methods. In this special track, some of these key aspects are presented by speakers representing some of the most successful and innovative satellite operators. 32 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 Tuesday 6th September @ 14:00, Room LLULL Stefano Cioni European Space Agency (ESA), The Netherlands Sandro Scalise German Aerospace Center (DLR), Germany ST3: Applications and Technologies for Messaging and IoT/M2M over Satellite The booming of applications in the areas of Internet of Things and Machine to Machine will play a prominent role in the upcoming development of 5G standard. Satellite telecommunication can play an important role whenever truly worldwide availability, even in very remote areas and across national borders is required. Especially interesting are those applications scenarios where very large populations of terminals spread over large geographical areas need to sporadically transmit small amount of data. In this special track, some of the most recent innovation technologies and developments are presented by speakers representing some of the most successful and innovative satellite operators and manufactures. 33 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 Detailed Technical Program Monday 5 th September 2016 10:30 — 12:30 M1.1 — ST1.1: Hybrid Terrestrial Satellite Networking and Services Resource Allocation Techniques Room: LLULL Chairs: Constantinos B.

Puig de Ros, Llucmajor www.mharesseaclub.com 50 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 ASMS/SPSC 2016 Visitor Information Palma de Mallorca is a modern cosmopolitan city with a wealth of things to do, and it welcomes visitors with open arms all year round. The city is an excellent base for excursions and for discovering the corners of the rest of the island. All of Mallorca’s attractions are within about an hour by car, making getting around the island comfortable and practical. This means that you can organise your stay so that, from the capital, you can plan visits to the Serra de Tramuntana mountains (with many hiking trails), the north of the island, with its beaches and its enchanting scenery, the coves and the natural wonders of the east of the island, the long sandy beaches of the south and the rural and gastronomic world of the interior. The choice is yours! Monument: Consell Insular The Consell Insular de Mallorca, situated next to the City Hall, is Mallorca's current governing body. The building's origins can be traced back to the old Provincial Deputation, a state institution of the early 19th century that had this palace built, with a notable neoGothic façade designed by the architect Joaquín Pavía y Birmingham, in 1882. The interesting sculptural details are the work of the artist Llorenç Ferrer i Martí. 51 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 Mallorca Cathedral: La Seu The Cathedral is Mallorca’s most emblematic monument, as it perfectly synthesises the last eight centuries of its history. The image of a great ship on the sea dominating the bay of Palma with its beauty and presence first surprises visitors before arousing their curiosity and becoming a symbol of the island’s historical and spiritual heritage. Built next to the Mediterranean, the Cathedral leads a monumental ensemble, evoking the cultures that came before the conquest of Madina Mayurqa, on 31 December 1229, by James I, the King of Aragon and Count of Barcelona. James the Conqueror, following the habit of the time, consecrated the old mosque to the Virgin Mary and prepared to build a new church in the style of the era. There is documentary evidence from 1230 relating to the work on the Cathedral. Historic Garden S’Hort del Rei S’Hort del Rei was a mediaeval garden located outside the walls of the Almudaina palace that existed until the 19th century when the area was developed. It enjoyed a golden age in the early 14th century in the times of King James II of Mallorca, and there were fruit trees, flowers and vegetable gardens. Animals such as rabbits were also bred there. In the 1960s, as part of the plan for restoring the surroundings of the Almudaina palace, the buildings on this site were demolished in order to put in new gardens in a historical style, designed by the Mallorcan architect Gabriel Alomar. He combined traditional 52 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 elements of Mallorcan gardens, such as a pergola, with other elements of Andalusian inspiration, like a pond with fountains reminiscent of the one in the Alhambra. However, this new layout has little relationship with the mediaeval one. Palma de Mallorca City Hall This building, with its 17th century exterior and 19th century interior is located in Plaza de Cort, Palma’s focal point. It was originally the seat of the Jurados, the executive branch of the old Kingdom of Mallorca. With the changes in the government, that took place in the 18th century, Palma council inherited the building as well as the furnishings of the former University of the Kingdom. In its interior its picture gallery stands out, especially its collection of paintings of notable figures of the Kingdom of Mallorca. 53 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 Notes 54 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 55 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 56 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 57 Advanced Satellite Multimedia Systems Conference / Signal Processing for Space Communications Workshop ASMS/SPSC 2016 58 in collaboration with
