Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of heterogeneous links frame length adaptive approach being applied to space-sky information network, specifically a kind of ratio by the positive feedback signal in analysis satellite network Selective resending mechanism and negative-feedback signal carrys out estimating channel bit error rate situation, thus the method for adaptive control data in link layer element length, belong to technical field of satellite communication.
Background technology
Space-sky information network is the three-dimensional network resource Iarge-scale system on a set sky, sky, ground, it encompasses track residing for from earth surface to the high rail satellite apart from more than 3.6 ten thousand kilometer, ground, environment, platform, business, heterogeneous network converged, ad hoc networking, high speed data transfer etc. constitute the fundamental of space-sky information network.
Environment residing for space-sky information network comprises the air outer space from ground to 3.6 ten thousand kilometers, its constructing communication network ranges span stratosphere, intermediate layer, ionosphere and escape layer. because space-sky information network covering scope is large, communication distance is far away, corresponding communication delay comparatively ground network obviously exceeds a lot, as synchronous satellite (GEO) and the propagation delay time on ground are about 25Oms, so large propagation delay time brings great challenge to network control and network transmission efficiency.On the other hand, because wireless signal often needs through multiple different region in long propagation, larger interference can be brought to microwave, laser signal in various meteorological condition and ionosphere, cause the error rate of information transmission in space-sky information network higher, this can affect network transmission efficiency further.
Space-sky information network channel is the channel of an opening, and the electromagnetic wave that cosmic ray and the various mankind manufacture all may cause interference to the radio signal of band transmissions.Satellite-signal is propagated between ground station and satellite through long-distance in addition, can be subject to the impact of many factors.Such as free-space propagation loss, troposphere on the impact of radio wave propagation, ionosphere on the impact of radio wave propagation, multipath fading and shade capture-effect, Doppler frequency shift etc.The result disturbed is that the signal of band transmissions distorts.Some intensity of disturbing is very large and the duration is longer time, recipient correctly cannot demodulate signal, then communicate likely failure.
Frame length negotiation mechanism in wireline communication network is more representational cable network frame length solution.The communication link of this communication network is that communicating pair is monopolized, and there is not the problem of competitive channel.The selection of frame length depends primarily on the intensity of noise jamming.Communicating pair, when connecting, first by the assessment to link-quality, then is consulted to use different compression factor to encode, is finally determined the length of frame, this frame length can be adopted when current link is effective always to communicate.This frame length negotiation mechanism be only applicable to more stable link interference and too large change can not be there is in the state of communication link when, it disturbs the error code that produces to be repaired.But when larger change occurs the state of communication link, there is a large amount of mistakes in the frame that recipient receives, cannot continue to maintain normal communication, link is counted out, and needs again to consult to connect.For the good link of quality, communicating pair adopts high compression ratio coding, adds less redundant information, fully uses the communication capacity of link.For second-rate link, communicating pair adopts low compression coding, in the middle of every frame, add more redundant information, improves the error correcting capability of recipient, reduces that occur cannot the situation of frame of error correction.
The communication link quality of satellite communication network is poor, and environment is more severe.Because high dynamic flying device, near space platform are all moving at high speed, the environment of communication link may constantly change, no matter noise jamming is around that frequency or the fluctuating of Strength Changes may be quite violent, and the now interference of noise to communication will be very serious.In this case, the transmission of anchor-frame progress row is adopted can to bring the low of communication link service efficiency.Under severe communication link condition, adopt shorter frame to be just easy to avoid interference, the probability of conflict can be reduced well, make full use of the communication capacity of channel.Under good communication link condition, adopt longer frame, often successfully send and once just can transmit more information, realize making full use of of channel.Use long frame under severe conditions, send failed probability very large, therefore use the efficiency of long frame just to can not show a candle to and use short frame, so space-sky information network is more suitable for using elongated frame strategy, to improve the utilance of link to greatest extent.In addition, satellite communication channel belongs to point-to-multipoint delivery channel, when providing connection-oriented reliable link transmission service to upper strata, general employing autonomous retransmission (Automatic Repeat Request, ARQ) agreement, for long delay satellite link, stopping waiting for ARQ(Stop and Wait ARQ) protocol efficiency is lower, less employing.Rollback N frame ARQ(Go-Back-N Automatic Repeat Request, GBNARQ), with Sr-ARQ (Selective Repeat ARQ, SRARQ) agreement, all have employed sliding window mechanism, all Frames being positioned at current send window can be sent continuously, improve the bandwidth availability ratio of link under long delay chain environment.

The satellite channel error rate is generally 10
-4-10
-7between, for the ease of adjustment, channel bit error rate is divided into 4 intervals (code clerk is 00-11) by us, and calculate the optimum frame long value in this interval, at first and under not knowing channel situation, data are sent so that good error rate acquisition current transmission frame length is concurrent, then compare in some cycles T and select the number of negative-feedback signal and the ratio R of positive feedback number in autonomous retransmission process, if when this value is less than certain numerical value a, can think that present channel ambient conditions is relatively good or stable, so frame length is increased to that optimum frame long value corresponding to next error rate interval, if when this value is greater than certain value a, can think that error rate is larger under current transmission frame long value, suitably should reduce transmission frame length, frame length is reduced to that optimum frame long value corresponding to a upper error rate interval, the rest may be inferred makes the utilance of channel reach maximum, and avoid and constantly look into the larger problem of overhead that optimum length of frame and error rate table bring, comprehensively improve the communication capacity of space-sky information network.
