Distance Vector Routing
Distance Vector Routing is a routing method in which routers share distance information with neighbors to reach destinations, building routes iteratively based on advertised metrics.
Concept/Framework
Distributed Processing
Distributed Processing is the execution of computational work across multiple nodes or systems rather than on a single machine.
Software
Doppler Compensation
Doppler Compensation is the adjustment of frequency or timing to counteract Doppler shift caused by relative motion between transmitter and receiver.
Operations
Downlink
Downlink is the communication path from a transmitter or network toward a receiver or end user device. It is the receive direction in a bidirectional link.
Protocol
Downlink Power Control
Downlink Power Control is the adjustment of transmit power on a downlink to maintain service quality or reduce interference. It is used to balance coverage and efficiency.
Operations
Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation
Dynamic Bandwidth Allocation is the adaptive assignment of bandwidth based on demand, policy, or channel conditions. It is used to share capacity more efficiently.
Operations
Dynamic Routing
Dynamic Routing is routing that automatically updates path selection based on network state or routing information. It adapts to changing topology and link conditions.
Software
Earth Segment
Earth Segment is the ground-based part of a satellite communications system that includes infrastructure supporting control, telemetry, tracking, and service access from Earth.
Hardware
Earth Station
Earth Station is a ground-based satellite communications facility that transmits and receives signals to and from spacecraft. It provides the terrestrial side of the satellite link.
Hardware
EBGP
EBGP is a BGP routing session used between routers in different autonomous systems. It supports inter-domain route exchange and policy enforcement.
