Researchers have developed a new framework to analyze latency signatures in Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite internet, specifically using Starlink data. The method transforms raw round-trip time (RTT) measurements into statistical features for regional comparison. Findings indicate that latency is significantly influenced by infrastructure availability and the distance between Starlink dishes and Points of Presence, with minimum RTT identified as the most crucial feature. While the model achieved 83% accuracy on short-term data, its performance degrades over longer periods, highlighting the need for adaptive models. AI
