Dr. Nitinder Mohan has been awarded the RIPE Academic Cooperation Initiative (RACI) Fellowship for 2025, recognizing outstanding research contributions to Internet measurements and network analysis.
The fellowship supports ongoing research on LEO satellite network performance, building on the team's award-winning work on Starlink measurements. It provides access to RIPE Atlas and other measurement platforms for conducting large-scale Internet measurements.
This work focuses on characterizing LEO satellite networks, understanding CDN behavior over satellite links, and optimizing transport protocols for satellite connectivity. The research benefits network operators, researchers, and policymakers working on next-generation Internet infrastructure.
