In this paper we present a simulation tool for the study of satellite mobile communications systems. In particular, the study has been focused on LEO satellite constellations, such as ICO or Globalstar. We have used Ptolemy for programming the application, because of its extensibility and modularity characteristics. Geometrical analysis of the constellations, beam coverage maps as well as capacity and traffic studies can be approached.
