TECHNIKS ZUM VERKAUF VON SATELLITENBETRIEBSMITTEL

摘要

Techniques for trading satellite communication resources include a network operations controller 80 for receiving an offer and analyzing bids in response to the offer. The network operations controller at least partially revises a downlink schedule of resources in response to the winning bid. A satellite 10 receives information from the network operations controller 80 and configures a switch 50 in the satellite, as well as the downlink schedule, in order to enable data communications through the satellite by the winning bidder.
