Optimization of connection-oriented, mobile, hybrid network systems.

We consider the extension of a cellular system by means of satellite channels. Specifically, we consider an area covered by a number of cells, that is also covered by a number of spot beams. We consider connection-oriented service, and call durations are assumed to be exponentially distributed. Also...
