In this paper a novel dynamic bandwidth allocation method is proposed for satellite ATM based on onboard processing, which can allocate the bandwidth dynamically by using traffic estimation.

With the exponential increase in the size of the IP network and the urgent demands in network management and maintenance, traffic matrix estimation has currently become an interesting topic.

It makes a comparison between the SCV and packet number prediction effect of real traffic load of NLANR and the effect on the total traffic load estimation.
