  Abstract

Satellite ATM networks will be superior to terrestrial ATM networks in the future. One of the issues in designing satellite ATM switch is fault-tolerance, and redundant paths can be used for adding fault-tolerance characteristics. In this paper, a fault-tolerant MIN (Multistage Interconnection Network) is proposed for satellite ATM networks. The proposed network consists of 2×2, 4×4, 1×2, and 2 ×1 SEs (Switching Elements). Two planes are used in parallel for getting redundant paths at the two middle stages of the proposed network. From the evaluation, the terminal reliability of the proposed network is calculated approximately as 0.9279. There are eight redundant paths, and 64 links. The proposed network provides higher or comparable result than the existing MINs with the terminal reliability and redundant paths of various network sizes. By using the suitable number of links, it also gives higher or comparable terminal reliability than the other networks.
