Reliability and cost efficiency analysis for deep space habitat network based on Nash bargaining solution by Zi-jing CHENG, Jun-nan ZHAO, Yu-wen CUI, Le-yi SHI

“…Focusing on the deep space habitat network requirements of high reliability and expensive links,two impact factors to the network performance were regarded as a multi-objective optimization problem,which were network reliability and cost efficiency model,and the relations between the two factors were formalized.Thereafter,the Nash model of cooperative game was used to make a fairness compromise to the network reliability and cost efficiency,and the Nash bargaining solution set was acquired through the Matlab platform with CVX.Further,through changing the threat value dynamically and performing the repeated game,the Pareto optimal solution could be obtained which can ensure the fairness of reliability and cost efficiency simultaneously.Finally,the Nash bargaining method was applied to a typical deep space habitat network topology,and described in detail how to set up the link numbers and link capacity in order to reduce the cost when the network traffic and the link capacity were given.The proposed work is important for the deployment and optimization of the deep space habitat network.…”

LEO Satellite Internet of Things Access Technology Based on Beamforming by Xuxu XIE, Xiaojin DING, Tao HONG, Gengxin ZHANG

“…The integration of terrestrial communication and satellite communication for internet of things (IoT) is the inevitable trend of the development of wireless communication network, to achieve the vision of the connection of everything.As a supplement to terrestrial IoT, satellite IoT can make up the fl aws of terrestrial IoT.However, with the expansion of IoT scale, it will be diffi cult for satellites to meet the communication needs of increasing number of IoT terminals, because the problem of limited satellite load will become increasingly prominent.Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology is the key technology of terrestrial 5G, and also an important research direction of satellite communication in the future 6G.The beamforming(BF) technology was introduced in MIMO into the low earth orbit (LEO) satellite based IoT, to made full use of spatial resources and signifi cantly improved system capacity.In view of the implementation conditions of BF technology and the characteristics of satellite IoT, several related issues were discussed, included channel model, BF criterions, load balancing access technology of one satellite and cooperative BF access technology of several satellites.…”
