Description

LEOMEO double-layer satellite constellation-oriented interlayer link topology design method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of satellite network design, and particularly relates to an LEOMEO double-layer satellite constellation-oriented interlayer link topology design method.
Background
At present, a double-layer satellite network consists of a high orbit constellation and a low orbit constellation, and a connection scheme of inter-satellite links between the two layers forms an interlayer topology. The differentiated orbital heights result in differentiated motion periods for the two satellites. For two satellites with different orbital periods, a permanent visible inter-layer link may be formed only if the orbital radii of both satellites are greater than 2.14 times the radius of the earth. Thus, the LEO/MEO constellation does not qualify for the construction of permanent inter-layer links, subject to earth shadowing. Over time, the visual range between two stars can be shielded by the earth, so that frequent link switching and disconnection are caused, and the topological time-varying property is strong. The current interlayer topology design scheme for the double-layer satellite network is mainly the interlayer topology design based on a virtual topology model.
The virtual topological model divides the orbit period T of the satellite network into n time slots { [ T ] 0 ,t 1 ),[t 1 ,t 2 ),…,[t n-1 ,t n ) H, where t 0 =0,t n And (T). The topology of the network within each time slot can be considered as a static topology, the change of topology only occurring at the switching instant t of the time slot 1 ,t 2 ,…t n-1 }. Due to the predictability of the satellite motion, all topological switching time points and node connection relations in each time slot can be calculated in advance. In consideration of the high dynamic characteristics of the inter-layer links, the virtual topology model can model the inter-layer link change into a time evolution sequence of a plurality of static graphs, characterize the inter-layer topology at any moment by the static graphs corresponding to the time slots, characterize the dynamic change of the inter-layer links by the time evolutions of the adjacent time slots, and accurately describe the inter-layer topology.
Based on a virtual topology model, the topology design schemes of the inter-layer links are mainly divided into two types: one type aims at guaranteeing the QoS of the service and enhancing the information transmission capability of the network. The prior art provides a virtual topology grouping strategy, LEO satellites are divided into groups, each group is allocated with one MEO satellite as a Leader, and a heuristic ant colony algorithm, a tabu search algorithm and a genetic algorithm are designed, so that the packet loss rate, the link congestion and the call loss rate of a multilayer satellite network are reduced. Based on dynamic flow perception, the LEO satellite is helped to select a proper MEO satellite for access by analyzing the length of a flow queue and the size of flow on an interlayer link, and the congestion of the flow on an MEO layer is avoided. Modeling satellite time evolution as cyclic hopping between finite state machines (FSA), and maximizing the number of calls carried by the network by adopting a two-stage heuristic algorithm of optimizing the topological state first and then optimizing the flow distribution.
The other type of scheme for optimizing the interlayer link allocation aims to improve the topological stability of the interlayer link and reduce the switching cost and the system complexity. Three inter-layer link selection schemes exist, namely shortest distance link establishment, longest connection time link establishment and maximum resource utilization link establishment. At present, the longest connection time is widely favored by virtue of longer service time, namely, each low-orbit satellite selects a high-orbit satellite which can predict the longest connection time to build a link. However, link switching in isolation of each low-earth satellite makes the topological time slot more fragmented, the number of topologies increases, and the topological characterization and routing calculation become more complicated. Based on the problem, an optimization algorithm for merging topology time slots is provided, and the duration of the topology is prolonged. The prior art provides a centralized decision-making interlayer link allocation strategy, so that all links are switched at a specified time, and the topology dynamics is reduced. But this also causes the MEO and LEO satellites to isolate from each other at the time of link reconstruction, losing connectivity. Therefore, a two-stage synchronous switching strategy for the interlayer laser link is provided, the interlayer link is divided into two groups for alternate switching, the network connectivity is ensured, the topology dynamic property is reduced, and the constellation switching overhead is reduced.
The method provides an interlayer topology design scheme for enhancing information transmission capability and improving topology stability, but the constraints of the two network performances on the topology design are relatively isolated, so that the interlayer link configuration scheme can only be selected between the improvement of information carrying capability and the topology stability. And the configuration of the number of the satellite antennas of the low-orbit and high-orbit decision schemes is relatively single, so that the influence dimensionality of antenna parameters on the interlayer topological performance is difficult to expand. Therefore, a new method for designing an interlayer link topology facing a leomoeo double-layer satellite constellation is urgently needed to solve the problem that the prior art cannot simultaneously improve the interlayer information carrying capacity and the topology stability.
Through the above analysis, the problems and defects of the prior art are as follows:
(1) The constraint of the network performance of the existing interlayer topology design scheme on the topology design is relatively isolated, so that the interlayer link configuration scheme can only be selected from the two schemes of improving the information bearing capacity and the topology stability, and the interlayer information bearing capacity and the topology stability cannot be improved at the same time.
(2) The configuration of the number of satellite antennas of the low-orbit and high-orbit decision schemes of the existing interlayer topology design scheme is relatively single, and the influence dimensionality of antenna parameters on the interlayer topology performance is difficult to expand.
The difficulty in solving the above problems and defects is: the double-layer satellite networking mode invisibly enlarges the network scale, increases the types and the number of inter-satellite links, improves the difficulty of inter-layer inter-satellite link design, simultaneously, the satellite-borne antenna parameters are important factors influencing the inter-layer bearing capacity, and how to simultaneously improve the inter-layer information bearing capacity and the topological stability becomes a difficult point of the inter-layer inter-satellite link design.
The significance of solving the problems and the defects is as follows: meanwhile, the inter-satellite link connection method for improving the interlayer information capability and the topological stability of the double-layer satellite networking can ensure the reliability and the network communication performance of the inter-satellite link, effectively analyze the influence dimensionality of antenna parameters on the interlayer topological performance, and provide reference for the design of a satellite-borne antenna.

Step three, according to the double-layer satellite network system comprising the LEO constellation and the MEO constellation, the design of the topological sequence of the interlayer link needs to meet the constraint of system parameters, and a constraint model is established by considering the visibility of the interlayer satellite, the transmitting power of the satellite antenna, the number of the LEO satellite antennas and the number of the MEO satellite antennas:
(3a) Visibility constraints of inter-layer satellites: calculating whether the two satellites in any time slot satisfy the visual range visible relationship to obtain a visible relationship topological sequence:
Sight={S(1),S(2),…,S(k),…,S(N)}

s (i,j,k) -l (i,j,k) ≥0
(3b) Antenna transmission power constraint: the wireless channel transmits data subject to path fading and transceiver antenna parameters. SNR of one interlayer link in any time slot (i,j,k) Can be expressed as:
Figure BDA0003403780970000192

wherein, B is the frequency bandwidth, and the value range of the transmitting power can be obtained through conversion:
Figure BDA0003403780970000201

Step five, designing a 0-1 integer linear programming algorithm based on time evolution to solve the design scheme Topo of the optimal interlayer link topology sequence in the step one:
firstly, according to constellation and antenna parameter constraint conditions (except the constraint of the optimal topology of the previous time slot), with the aim of maximizing the total link rate between layers, the optimal topology between layers in the first time slot is calculated by utilizing the existing 0-1 integer linear programming tool box, and the topology constraint T of the next time slot is initialized by multiplying the visible relation point of the optimal topology and the next time slot pre Then, for each subsequent time slot, according to the single target 0-1 integer linear programming problem P1 and the topological constraint T in the step (4) pre And (3) calculating a topology optimization result under the time slot by using 0-1 integer linear programming, updating constraint conditions of topology solution of the next time slot in the same mode until topology solution of all time slots is finished, and finally evaluating the total inter-layer link rate C and the link switching ratio STA of the inter-layer link topology sequence Topo according to the performance evaluation index in the formula step (2).
And (3) simulation results:
1. interlayer information carrying capacity evaluation:
fig. 5 depicts the results of a comparison of the time evolution based 0-1 integer linear programming scheme (algorithm 1) with the shortest distance link setup scheme (algorithm 2) in terms of the inter-layer total link rate. The total link rate of the two algorithms is increased along with the increase of the MEO satellite antenna number, and when the MEO satellite antenna number reaches a certain threshold value, the total link rate tends to be stable. The number of LEO antennas determines the upper limit of the overall link rate between layers, given the number of MEO antennas. This is because when there are fewer MEO antennas, there are limited LEO satellites to which each MEO satellite can connect, limiting the establishment of more inter-layer links. As the number of MEO antennas increases, the number of LEO antennas becomes a tight constraint, limiting the maximum number of links that can be formed between the two layers and determining the upper limit of the total link rate.
The inter-layer total link rate in algorithm 1 is not lower than algorithm 2 under any antenna configuration, and when the MEO antenna number is limited, the inter-layer total link rate in algorithm 1 is higher than algorithm 2. This is because algorithm 1 takes the maximum number of links between layers as the optimization target in each time slot, while algorithm 2 only selects the MEO satellite closest to itself to build the link. When multiple LEO satellites are closest to the same MEO satellite, if the MEO constructable number is saturated, the LEO satellites lose the opportunity to construct links, and algorithm 2 wastes antenna resources. However, the algorithm 1 can make a comprehensive decision according to the number of satellite antennas of the whole network and the visible relation, so that the situation is avoided.
2. Inter-layer topology stability assessment
Fig. 6 depicts the results of comparing the inter-layer link switching ratios of algorithm 1 and algorithm 2. Obviously, the link switching ratios of the two algorithms show different trend with the increase of the number of MEO antennas. Specifically, the link switching ratio of algorithm 2 gradually decreases as the number of MEO antennas increases, the topology stability increases, and the MEO antennas reach a stable value when sufficient. This is because the increase of MEO antennas improves the link establishment capability of MEOs for multiple LEO satellites, so that the increase of links with the shortest distance that can be maintained by adjacent time slots, the decrease of the jackard distance of adjacent topologies, and the reduction of link switching ratio. When the LEO satellite has more antennas, the link switching proportion of the topology obtained by the two algorithms is reduced, and the stability of the topology is improved. For algorithm 1, the number of links that the adjacent slot topology can maintain increases because the LEO antenna constraints become loose. For the algorithm 2, when each LEO satellite selects several MEO satellites that are closest to each other, the situation that all the satellites are far away in the next time slot is reduced, part of links can survive for a longer time, and the topology stability is improved.
As shown in fig. 7, the link switching proportion of algorithm 1 does not change significantly with the number of MEO antennas, and the overall value is lower than that of algorithm 2, so that the method has strong topological stability. This is because the topological design of each time slot of algorithm 1 refers to the topological design scheme of the previous time slot, and the links satisfying the constraints of the antennas and the visible relationship are maintained in the time slot, and only the links not satisfying the visible relationship are optimized. The link meeting the antenna number constraint in the last time slot is also satisfied in the time slot, so the MEO antenna number can only affect the topology design scheme of the first time slot, and cannot affect the topology optimization of the subsequent time slot. The number of links that can be maintained and switched in a subsequent time slot is only related to the visible relationship of that time slot and the optimization results of the upper time slot. Compared with the algorithm 2, the algorithm 1 greatly prolongs the survival time of the sustainable link, and is not influenced by the change of the link distance, so that the link switching proportion of the algorithm 1 is far lower than that of the algorithm 2.
In summary, compared with the shortest distance link establishment algorithm, the time evolution-based 0-1 integer linear programming algorithm has higher interlayer information carrying capacity and higher topological stability.
