Provided is a method, system, and computer readable medium for satellite communication. The method includes determining an operating modulation and coding scheme (MODCOD) associated with each terminal of a plurality of terminals, the plurality of terminals being a part of an iNet; identifying an optimal MODCOD based on operating MODCODs associated with the plurality of terminals; associating the optimal MODCOD with the iNet; and transmitting a multicast stream to the plurality of terminals based on the optimal MODCOD.

System, apparatus, and method for optimal MODCOD selection

A remote device comprising a remote clock oscillator with relatively low precision, a receiver that receives time packets transmitted periodically from the hub device via the satellite, each time packet including a hub real time clock (RTC) value and a hub network clock reference (NCR) value, a remote RTC counter that represents a remote RTC value at the remote, a remote NCR counter that represents a remote NCR value at the remote, and processing circuitry that extracts the hub RTC value and the hub NCR value from a current time packet, compares contents of the current time packet with contents of a previously received time packet, and adjusts the remote RTC counter based on the result of the comparison to synchronize the remote RTC value at the remote with the hub RTC value.
