Summary • VSI-Hwas quite successful, and useful. • Mark5B-K5＠JGN2Symp2007 • Mark5-VSIB@Ultra-rapid UT1 • NICT-NAOJ Devices(ADS-X000,VOA100/200,Software Corr(VERA) • Sharing standard interface reduces the cost and brings freedom and benefit for VLBIers. • E-VLBI era is good chanceto make all VLBI system fully compatible/connectable. • Handling data via software/network is great advantage. • We may discuss about standard or framework for taking compatibility. • Defining Standard Data Transport protocol

  20. Thank you for attention!

  21. Accuracy and latency of UT1 As an example of requirement: 10usec of accuracy(100m at Mars) can enables use of ar dragging and greatly reduce fuel weight for the space prove. E-VLBI Projct(1)

  22. What will happen when global e-VLBI is operated routinely? • At present, No problem for one stream Europe-Japan with shared network. Because of no congestion. • What about multiple streams? • In case of congestion, data rate drastically decreases, especially in TCP/IP. • Even Tsunami(UDP) tries to send complete data set by re-transmission mechanism, and … finally fails.

  23. What is the Optimal transport protocol for real-time VLBI? • Features of Realtime VLBI are • Fixed Data Rate or slightly adjustable. • Relatively large error rate(<0.1) is acceptable, if padding and flagging is done. Only Header must be preserved. • “Optimal protocol for realtime e-VLBI” may looks like • Sending data in fixed rate regardless congestion • Just sending out by UDP (without re-transmission) • VLBI data may win the resource race, because it accept largest error rate than any other application. • This may be good for VLBI, but….

  24. Conflict between Network and VLBI • Network is assuming Faire users, who shares network bandwidth equally. ex).TCP reduces transmitting rate in congestion condition. Video stream may adjust the rate by changing the compression or resolution of image. Rate controlis expected. • But VLBI cannot change the rate in case of real-time VLBI. “Optimal protocol for VLBI” may defeat other data streams, but it may be criticized and kicked out from network. ⇒Not good for VLBI

  25. Possible Solutions are • Bandwidth on demand connection • Realized by GMPLS and started in operation in SINET3. • Using Disk/Memory buffer to enable rate control… but it will not guarantee the success of realtime VLBI. Switching to offline or best effort basis VLBI. ⇒This may work with software correlator. • Bandwidth on demand connection will become available in global network in future.
