Abstract: 
We present an overview of possibilities for existing Satellite Communication Systems utilization to provide Internet of Things Services. It is shown that existing Satellite Communication Systems provide traffic transmission for IoT Systems with Cloud Architecture. The proposals are explicated on the possibility of using Fog and Edge Computing for Satellite Communication Systems. The implementation of  Fog and Edge computing in IoT Systems requires the modernization of the Low-Earth Orbit (LEO) and Geostationary Orbit (GEO) Satellite Communication Systems, and we show the ways of their enhancement. To increase the efficiency of IoT data processing and the reliability of IoT Data Storage, we propose to construct an Orbital Cloud Data Storage in GEO, which consists of several GEO Satellites - Cloud Computing Data Centers. Such a structure would require the development of methods of access providing to the Orbital Cloud Data Storage. For these purposes, our propositions include using GEO High-Throughput Satellites and satellites from the structure of LEO Satellite Communication. The issues of interaction between Orbital Cloud Data Storage and ground-based Cloud Data Processing and Storage Infrastructure are briefly considered. The orbital slots in GEO are proposed for the location of GEO Satellites - Cloud Computing Data Centers.
