From Orbital Math to Carrier Events
Post #002 defined the building blocks. This post is about what happens when you turn them on and the network starts moving. Specifically, how orbital mechanics become the link up, link down, and latency shift events that your routing protocol actually sees.
Addressing the Geometry Problem: Constellations in NodalArc
In terrestrial networking, you design the topology, generally constrained by
physical locations that make sense for the business. You choose where routers go, how they connect, and what
the link characteristics look like...
The Terrestrial Assumption Problem
What actually breaks when forty years of terrestrial routing assumptions meet an
orbital topology, and does anyone actually know for certain?
