Abstract
Many wireless systems used by military ground personnel are satellite based. This paper explores a hybrid system that benefits from both satellite and terrestrial wireless technologies while overcoming the limitations of each. We present the architecture, describe the merits, and then explain the essence of the system: IP Flow mobility. After introducing this concept, we describe some of the important aspects that specifically relate to mobility and security.
