用高空平台优化卫星网络时延与切换,提升偏远地区通信可靠性。

Joint AoI and Handover Optimization in Space-Air-Ground Integrated Network

  • 设计三层融合网络,用高空平台做卫星与地面的智能中继。
  • 联合优化信息时效性与切换频率,降低40%以上切换次数。
  • 创新算法融合扩散模型与强化学习,适合动态复杂场景应用。

尽管地面网络广泛部署,为偏远地区提供可靠通信服务并在紧急情况下维持连接仍具挑战。低地球轨道(LEO)卫星星座凭借全球覆盖和低延迟潜力成为解决方案,但受轨道动力学影响,存在覆盖间断和通信窗口有限的问题。本文提出一种面向信息时效性(AoI)的空-天-地一体化网络(SAGIN)架构,利用高空平台(HAP)作为LEO卫星与地面终端之间的智能中继。该三层次设计采用自由空间光通信(FSO)实现高容量卫星至HAP链路,使用可靠射频(RF)链路完成HAP至地面传输,从而缓解LEO覆盖的时间不连续问题,并满足不同用户优先级需求。具体而言,我们构建了一个联合优化问题,通过最优发射功率分配与卫星选择决策,同时最小化AoI与卫星切换频率。该高度动态、非凸且具有时间耦合约束的问题对传统方法构成显著计算挑战。为此,我们提出一种新型扩散模型增强的双延迟双深度Q网络与动作分解及状态变换编码器(DD3QN-AS)算法,结合基于Transformer的时序特征提取和基于扩散模型的潜在提示生成模块,通过条件去噪精炼状态-动作表示。仿真结果表明,所提方法在性能上优于基于策略的方法及其他深度强化学习基准。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Despite the widespread deployment of terrestrial networks, providing reliable communication services to remote areas and maintaining connectivity during emergencies remains challenging. Low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations offer promising solutions with their global coverage capabilities and reduced latency, yet struggle with intermittent coverage and limited communication windows due to orbital dynamics. This paper introduces an age of information (AoI)-aware space-air-ground integrated network (SAGIN) architecture that leverages a high-altitude platform (HAP) as intelligent relay between the LEO satellites and ground terminals. Our three-layer design employs hybrid free-space optical (FSO) links for high-capacity satellite-to-HAP communication and reliable radio frequency (RF) links for HAP-to-ground transmission, and thus addressing the temporal discontinuity in LEO satellite coverage while serving diverse user priorities. Specifically, we formulate a joint optimization problem to simultaneously minimize the AoI and satellite handover frequency through optimal transmit power distribution and satellite selection decisions. This highly dynamic, non-convex problem with time-coupled constraints presents significant computational challenges for traditional approaches. To address these difficulties, we propose a novel diffusion model (DM)-enhanced dueling double deep Q-network with action decomposition and state transformer encoder (DD3QN-AS) algorithm that incorporates transformer-based temporal feature extraction and employs a DM-based latent prompt generative module to refine state-action representations through conditional denoising. Simulation results highlight the superior performance of the proposed approach compared with policy-based methods and some other deep reinforcement learning (DRL) benchmarks.
