Abstract
| The Consultative committee for space data
systems (CCSDS) File delivery protocol (CFDP) is a pro-
tocol speci¯cally designed to meet the comprehensive re-
quirements of space networks. However, CFDP's retrans-
mission mechanics in deferred mode reduce its link utiliza-
tion in space networks where long propagation delay and
high bit error rate exists. In this paper, we proposed an
improved ¯le delivery protocol called Relayed ¯le delivery
protocol (RFDP). RFDP adopts a relay transmission me-
chanics which raises the link utilization and reduces the
total ¯le delivery time. In the next place, we analyzed and
deduced the performance expressions of both protocols.
Finally, we made simulations to both CFDP and RFDP.
The results show that RFDP have performance superior-
ity over CFDP in space networks.
