Abstract--Mobility management is required to ensure the
session continuity for multiple IP-enabled devices onboard a
satellite that hands off between ground stations. Network Mo-
bility (NEMO) can efficiently manage the mobility of multiple
IP-enabled devices that are connected as a mobile network.
However, existing mobility management solutions for satellite
networks are unable to route through intermediate satellites
links when a direct connection with a ground station is lost.
We propose an architecture of NEMO in satellite networks with
