The transport layer is the essential part in the open system interconnection (OSI) reference model, since it is the interface between the software-oriented layers 5-7 and hardware-oriented layers 1-3. On the one hand, it provides a general approach for data exchange with the software-oriented layers, independent of the underlying hardware. On the other hand, it is responsible for an efficient...
SpaceFibre links can operate without software intervention, are not constrained by a maximum packet length and provide a reliable link that transparently mitigates single-event effects produced by radiation events.
This work shows how SpaceFibre can be used by COTS devices with Ethernet interfaces and how it can leverage the standard TCP/IP stack to deliver even more capabilities.
