Wireless Network Communications Engineering

GST's communications engineering solutions ensure viable, high-performance, cost-effective networking in satellite, telemetry, and terrestrial wireless networks.

Solutions include:
  • Bandwidth-efficient protocols optimized for client-specific network conditions and performance requirements.
  • Common interface and standard data formats that overcome inherent inefficiencies of standard Internet protocols in a wireless environment.
  • Custom protocol development and integration to build high-performance, bit-efficient protocols into wireless communications systems.
  • Network architectural design.
  • Network simulation and testing.
  • Lossy and lossless data compression.
Unique knowledge of Space Communications Protocol Standards (SCPS)
  • Instrumental in developing the original SCPS-TP implementation reference.
  • Currently represent NASA on the Consultative Committee on Space Data Systems (CCSDS).
  • Authored the SCPS Rationale CCSDS Green Book.
  • Chair the Interplanetary Internet Project at the Internet Research Task Force (IRTF).
  • Influential in the founding of the TCPSAT Working Group at the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF).
