In recent years, the development of the marine industry has been receiving increasing attention from countries around the world. In order to meet the major development requirements of various marine industries, a perfect marine information network must be built so as to realize seamless, efficient and reliable information coverage in a wide sea area. However, compared with the more developed land-based information network, the marine information network has great differences in electromagnetic environment, user distribution, node performance, etc., and communication and network resources such as energy, bandwidth, storage, computation, etc. are relatively in short supply, so that these factors severely limit the service efficiency and capability, i.e., network performance, of the marine information network.
Particularly in the offshore area, most ships are statistically sailing in the offshore range of about 50 kilometers away from the coast, but the shore-based mobile communication base station mainly aims at land users and generally only can cover several kilometers of square circles, so that most offshore ship users cannot directly access the shore-based network. Therefore, the ships in the offshore sea area can not communicate, and information transmission and receiving are influenced.
Due to the complex offshore environment, the electromagnetic wave transmission is simultaneously interfered by factors such as onshore obstacles, sea surface reflection and the like, and in addition, the position of the offshore ship is constantly changed, so that the high efficiency and flexibility of the relay base station deployment method need to be realized; finally, the time-varying uplink and downlink services of the marine communication cannot reasonably utilize the channel, so that the offshore network efficiency is low.

and S400, converging and iterating by using the channel capacity, the uplink and downlink capacity, the minimum transmission capacity and the basic deployment range in the air as variables through a particle swarm algorithm to obtain the optimal position of the air base station.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 2, the relay system includes a shore-based base station, an unmanned aerial vehicle air relay base station, and N marine vessel users. The plane coordinates of the shore-based base station are (0,0), the coordinates of the N marine vessel users are (xM1, yM1), … …, (xMN, yMN), and the heights of the two are ignored in the embodiment of the invention. In addition, the three-dimensional space coordinate of the air relay base station is (xU, yU, hU). The relay system adopts a time division duplex mode for forwarding, so that only the uplink or downlink unidirectional transmission of a unique ship user and a shore-based base station is supported in the same time slot, and the uplink and downlink transmission of the same link section also shares the same channel. The carrier frequency and bandwidth adopted by the links between the shore-based base station and the aerial base station and the links between the aerial base station and the ship users are respectively f1, B1, f2 and B2, wherein the links between the aerial base station and all N offshore users share the same channel. In addition, the aerial base station carries two sets of independent transceivers for communication with the shore-based base station and the offshore users, and the two transceivers adopt directional antennas for sending and receiving. For the link between the aerial base station and the ship, θ i represents the pointing direction of the aerial base station antenna and the included angle between the aerial base station antenna and the ith offshore user, namely the deflection angle of the antenna, and (xA, yA) is used in the embodiment of the invention to represent the intersection point between the antenna and the sea level. The antenna transmission power of the shore-based base station, the aerial base station to the maritime users and the N maritime users are pB, pU1, pU2, pM1, … … and pMN respectively.

In particular, λ i represents the ratio of the number of time slots allocated to the ith marine user to the total time slots, where
Figure BDA0002653368340000061
And using γ i ∈ [0,1 ]]Indicating that the uplink time slot allocated to the ith marine subscriber accounts for all of the time slots allocated to that subscriberThe ratio of the gaps.
Given the complexity of the offshore communication environment, it is desirable to model the communication channels between shore-based base stations and aerial base stations, and between aerial base stations and offshore users, respectively. First, for a transmission link between a shore-based base station and an aerial base station, since obstacles and shelters generally exist around the shore-based base station, which may affect transmission quality, a channel model based on probability statistics is often used for analysis. Specifically, the radio wave transmission can be divided into two cases of line-of-sight transmission and non-line-of-sight transmission (NLOS), and the occurrence probability of the line-of-sight transmission is related to the angle between the transmission link and the horizontal plane, and can be approximately expressed as a Sigmoid function as follows:
PLoS(ψ)=1/{1+a×exp[-b×(ψ-a)]} (2-1)
wherein, a and b are environmental parameters of the probability of line-of-sight communication, and ψ is the transmission elevation angle of the shore-based base station, namely:
ψ=arcsin(hU/d1)(°) (2-2)
wherein, the first and the second end of the pipe are connected with each other,
Figure BDA0002653368340000071
the european distance between the shore-based base station and the air relay base station is represented, and the probability of occurrence of non-line-of-sight transmission is represented by PNLo S (ψ) ═ 1-PLo S (ψ), and it can be found that the larger the angle ψ between the transmission link and the horizontal plane is, the larger the probability of occurrence of line-of-sight transmission is, but shortening the transmission distance and increasing the deployment height to increase the angle ψ may cause an increase in the link path loss between the air relay base station and the offshore user, and therefore, it is necessary to determine the optimal deployment position by an optimization means.
In this model, the path loss of line-of-sight transmission between the shore-based base station and the aerial relay base station can be expressed as:
PLLoS(d1,f1)=FSPL(d1,f1)+ηLoS(dB) (2-3)
instead, the path loss of the non-line-of-sight transmission can be expressed as:
PLNLoS(d1,f1)=FSPL(d1,f1)+ηNLoS(dB) (2-4)
in the embodiment of the present invention, FSPL (d, f) (d B) is used to express the free space path loss under the condition of distance d km and frequency f MHz, that is:
FSPL(d,f)=20log10d+20log10f+32.44(dB) (2-5)
of the two types of path loss, η Lo S and η NLo S are used to represent the extra loss of line-of-sight transmission and non-line-of-sight transmission, respectively, and the specific values are related to the onshore environment. Therefore, the average path loss between the shore-based base station and the air relay base station is:
PL1(d1,f1)=FSPL(d1,f1)+PLoS(ψ)ηLoS+PNLoS(ψ)ηNLoS(dB) (2-6)
thus, the channel capacity of the downlink between the shore-based base station and the air base station can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0002653368340000072
the channel capacity of the uplink may be expressed as:
Figure BDA0002653368340000073
wherein, the channel gain coefficient g1 is 10-PL1/10Where σ 2 is used to represent the power density of white noise in the environment.
For a transmission link between an aerial base station and a marine user, since there are almost no large obstacles and shelters on the sea surface, the transmission link can be regarded as a sight transmission link approximately, an experience-based channel model is generally adopted, and the loss can be expressed as:
PL2i=10n log10(d2i)+ηM(f2)+ηA(θi)(dB) (2-9)
specifically, the first two terms in (2-9) represent the path loss of the air-offshore transmission link, which is generally close to the path loss in free space, where n is the path loss coefficient and has a value range of [1,3], and η M is the extra loss of the offshore transmission, which is mainly determined by the carrier frequency. The last term in (2-9) represents the antenna directivity loss caused by the deviation of the antenna pointing direction from the actual transmission link direction, and is expressed as:
ηA(θi)=min{12×(θi/15°)2,20dB} (2-10)
thus, the downlink and uplink channel capacities between the over-the-air relay base station and the ith offshore user can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0002653368340000081
and
Figure BDA0002653368340000082
wherein g2i ═ 10-PL2i/10Is the channel gain factor on that link. In addition, because the system adopts the time division duplex mode for forwarding, the actual transmission capacity is the product of the channel capacity and the proportion of the allocated time slots. For example, the actual capacity of the uplink transmission link from the ith maritime user to the air relay base station is λ i γ iCMUi
From the above analysis, the constraints of this problem can be summarized as the following four aspects: 1 link capacity balance; 2, balancing the uplink and downlink flow; 3 user quality of service fairness and 4 drone deployment security.
In the base station deployment configuration problem, the main Optimization variables include a base station deployment position, an antenna direction and a time slot allocation proportion, and the three are continuous variables, so that the problem is efficiently solved by adopting a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) based heuristic algorithm. The basic concept of the particle swarm algorithm is derived from the simulation and abstraction of the prey of the bird swarm, an individual in the bird swarm is abstracted into a feasible solution in the problem feasible domain and is called as a particle in the particle swarm, and the optimal solution of the problem is found through information interaction and iterative search of the particle in the problem feasible domain.
In the simulation, it is assumed that there are 5 marine vessel users, whose distribution is shown in fig. 3, where the marine user coordinates at the center are (l1,0) and the marine user coordinates at the periphery are (l1 ± l2/√ 2, ± l2/√ 2). In addition, according to different environments around the shore-based base station, two conditions of sparse obstacles and dense obstacles around the shore-based base station are respectively considered, and the related parameters refer to Suburban (suban) and Urban (Urban) scenes in the corresponding international telecommunication union recommendation.
For a shore-based base station, an aerial unmanned aerial vehicle relay base station, and a marine user, it is assumed that transmission power is respectively pB 10W, pU1 pU2 pU 5W pM1 pM … … pM N2W, gaussian white noise power density in the environment is σ 2-174 d B/Hz, uplink traffic occupancy of the marine user is ζ 0.1,0.3,0.5,0.7,0.9, a deployment horizontal position range of the aerial relay base station is xmin 0km, xmax 30km, ymin 10km, and ymin 10km, a deployment height range is hmin 1km and hmax 10km, and an antenna pointing range is the same as a horizontal deployment position. For an air-shore link between a shore-based base station and an air relay base station, the center frequency of communication is set to be f1 GHz and the bandwidth is B2 Hz to be 250k Hz, for the case of sparse buildings, the extra loss η LoS is set to be 0.1dB and η NLoS is set to be 21dB, the line-of-sight communication probability model coefficients a are 4.88 and B are 0.429, and for the case of dense buildings, the extra loss η Lo S is set to be 1dB and η NLo S is set to be 20dB, and the line-of-sight communication probability model coefficients a are 9.61 and B are 0.158. For an air-sea link between an air relay base station and a sea user, the center frequency of communication is set to be f 2-5.8 GHz, the bandwidth is set to be B2-250 kHz, the path loss coefficient n is set to be 1.6, and the extra loss eta M is set to be 109.8d B.
