In space communications, particularly when involving regions beyond cislunar space, the development of advanced networking solutions is essential to address the challenges posed by limited connectivity, substantial propagation delays, and radio signal variations. This study explores a data-driven approach to the Licklider Transmission Protocol (LTP), specifically focusing on dynamically adjusting the maximum payload size of segments. Prior research has emphasized the potential benefits of dynamically adjusting this parameter, introducing the concept of Cognitive LTP. This paper presents a software implementation of Cognitive LTP (CLTP) within an open-source Delay Tolerant Networking (DTN) framework, specifically the High-rate Delay Tolerant Networking (HDTN), and experimentally evaluates its performance under realistic space conditions. Leveraging the Cognitive Ground Testbed (CGT), developed by NASA GRC for spacecraft communication emulation, this study effectively bridges the gap between theoretical advancements and practical applications. By thoroughly analyzing CLTP's functionality within the CGT, this research offers insights into the practical implications of adaptive networking strategies, emphasizing the importance of conducting tests in relevant environments for the maturation of space communication technologies.
