The maturity of TCP/IP protocol prompts the progress of ground network greatly;however,traditional TCP protocol can't be directly applied to the satellite network efficiently.In view of instinct character such as big time delay product,high-error rate of satellite network and the problem of the resource competition of UDP,analyzed the defect of traditional TCP on satellite network deeply and introduced the TFRC mechanism into multi-media data flow so as to realize the fair utilization of bandwidth.Simulation results showed that with TFRC mechanism introduced,can achieve the fairness of bandwidth greatly in satellite network.
