Abstract
In an ATM satellite communication system, congestion parameters for the downlink from the satellite are measured in the satellite and are broadcast to the downlink terminals or to the downlink and uplink terminals linked by virtual channels extending through the satellite. At a downlink terminal or uplink terminal, the parameters broadcast from the satellite are used to calculate an explicit rate for a virtual channel in the downlink. The explicit rate calculated at the terminal is used by the source for the virtual channel to determine the rate of transmission of Available Bit Rate cells on the virtual channel.
