As far as future directions of research into NETBLT, one important
area needs to be explored. A series of algorithms need to be
developed to allow dynamic selection and control of NETBLT's
transmission parameters (burst size, burst interval, and number of
outstanding buffers). Ideally, this dynamic control will not require
any information from outside sources such as gateways; instead,
NETBLT processes will use end-to-end information in order to make
transmission rate decisions in the face of noisy channels and network
congestion. Some research on dynamic rate control is taking place
now, but much more work needs done before the results can be
integrated into NETBLT.

I. Wideband Bandwidth Analysis
Although the raw bandwidth of the Wideband Network is 3 megabits per
second, currently only about 1 megabit per second of it is available
to transmit data. The large amount of overhead is due to the channel
control strategy (which uses a fixed-width control subframe based on
the maximum number of stations sharing the channel) and the low-
performance BIO interface between BBN's BSAT (Butterfly Satellite
Interface) and Linkabit's ESI (Earth Station Interface). Higher-
performance BSMI interfaces are soon to be installed in all Wideband
sites, which should improve the amount of available bandwidth.
Bandwidth on the Wideband network is divided up into frames, each of
which has multiple subframes. A frame is 32768 channel symbols, at 2
bits per symbol. One frame is available for transmission every 21.22
milliseconds, giving a raw bandwidth of 65536 bits / 21.22 ms, or
3.081 megabits per second.
Each frame contains two subframes, a control subframe and a data
subframe. The control subframe is subdivided into ten slots, one per
earth station. Control information takes up 200 symbols per station.
Because the communications interface between BSAT and ESI only runs
at 2 megabits per second, there must be a padding interval of 1263
symbols between each slot of information, bringing the total control
subframe size up to 1463 symbols x 10 stations, or 14630 symbols.
The data subframe then has 18138 symbols available. The maximum
datagram size is currently expressed as a 14-bit quantity, further
dropping the maximum amount of data in a frame to 16384 symbols.
After header information is taken into account, this value drops to
16,036 symbols. At 2 bits per symbol, using a 3/4 coding rate, the
actual amount of usable data in a frame is 24,054 bits, or
approximately 3006 bytes. Thus the theoretical usable bandwidth is
24,054 bits every 21.22 milliseconds, or 1.13 megabits per second.
Since the NETBLT implementations are running on Ethernet LANs
gatewayed to the Wideband network, the 3006 bytes per channel frame
of usable bandwidth translates to two maximum-sized (1500 bytes)
Ethernet packets per channel frame, or 1.045 megabits per second.
