Abstract - Satellite systems are designed as a backup system to the existing land
based wireless systems. Because of the global coverage of the system it
becomes more economic for the rural areas where there is no wired
infrastructure of communication. Besides being more economic to the rural
areas the satellite networks are not affected by the natural disasters and
continue to give the service in such situations. In this research a routing
method in a routing set concept is investigated. The system tries to
minimize the maximum flow over a given set of shortest paths from the source
to destination and aims to leave additional capacity over the inter-satellite
links to be able to utilize better the limited capacity and, also, to avoid
the congestion.
