CLIF: Cross-layer LEO-ISL Fingerprinting for Physical and Network Attack Detection in Dense LEO Constellations

arXiv:2606.04901v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) mega-constellations such as Starlink by SpaceX and Kuiper by Amazon rely on optical Inter-Satellite Links (ISLs) for autonomous mesh routing to provide low-latency telecommunication, Internet of Things (IoT), and security services globally. As commercial operators and governments deploy increasingly dense constellations and form multi-operator peering coalitions, ISL integrity becomes critical to both commercial...
