Abstract
In this paper, a distributed on-demand routing protocol for Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite systems, named multiservice on-demand routing (MOR), is proposed and evaluated. The proposed protocol adjusts the routing procedure to the QoS requirements of different traffic classes. The performance of the MOR protocol is compared to the unique proposal for traffic class dependent routing in the literature and the good characteristics of the proposed scheme are corroborated by ample simulation experiments, where significant gains in performance are witnessed.
