A system includes a first MODEM configured to generate a first data packet (including a first virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) instance identifier associated with a first service, a first user group, or both) based on a first radio-frequency (RF) signal and a second MODEM configured to generate a second data packet (including a second VRF instance identifier associated with a second service, a second user group, or both) based on a second RF signal. The system includes a network device configured to receive the first data packet, transmit a first packet (including a first header that includes a first indicator associated with a first VRF instance) to a first device via a network, receive the second data packet, and transmit a second packet (including a second header that includes a second indicator associated with a second VRF instance) to a second device via the network.

An electronic device for a communications satellite for beamforming, channelization, and/or routing is implemented using a digital folded architecture to reduce the number of serial communication paths and provide more flexible routing and network configurability and scalability. A method for configuring the switching network of a system comprising multiple electronic devices allows the system to be dynamically reconfigured to implement different types of networks.

A communication system for providing network access over a shared communication link is disclosed. The communication system includes a user access point, a network access point and a communications link. The user access point is coupled to one or more user terminals that access a remote network. The network access point is coupled to the remote network. The communications link couples the user access point and the network access point. The communications link is at least partially controlled by the network access point, which monitors information passed between the remote network and the user access point to create an estimate of future usage of the communications link by the user access point based on the information. The network access point allocates communications link resources for the user access point based on the estimate.

Disclosed herein are solutions to remediate a distributed denial of service attack. In an example, a wireless transmit and receive unit (WTRU) transmits, to a network, a first attach request message including an store and forward (S&F) mode parameter. The WTRU receives, from the network, information indicating a puzzle and one or more parameters of the puzzle. Further, the WTRU generates evidence based on solving the puzzle. Moreover, the WTRU transmits, to the network, a second attach request message including the evidence. In an example, the WTRU receives, from the network, an attach reject message responsive to the S&F mode parameter. Additionally or alternatively, the WTRU receives, from the network, the S&F mode parameter. Additionally or alternatively, the network is a non-terrestrial network (NTN). Additionally or alternatively, the network includes a satellite. Additionally or alternatively, the includes a mobility management entity (MME) non-terrestrial (NT).
