Abstract
Measurement and analysis of traffic traces are important for better understanding of network behavior. In this paper, we describe measurements of traffic data from a satellite Internet service provider. We present statistical analysis used to characterize traffic loads and distribution of applications and packet sizes in a hybrid satellite-terrestrial system. We investigate long-range dependence as the traffic patterns vary during a day. We propose a traffic model on the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) connection level. Finally, we use data from billing records to predict traffic using autoregressive integrated moving average model and evaluate its performance.
