      摘要:The LEO satellite network become a powerful complement to the terrestrial network as it shows the advantage of low latency, low cost, low loss rate and global coverage.However, due to the uneven distribution of users and the variation of network traffic over time, some links may be congested and unbalanced.A load balancing routing algorithm based on genetic optimization and artificial bee colony in LEO satellite networks(GABC) was proposed, which combined genetic algorithm with artificial bee colony algorithm to avoid local optimization.Experimental results showed that compared with the shortest path routing and LBRA-CP algorithm, the proposed algorithm has higher data transmission rate and throughput with lower delay and overhead ratio.

      摘要:In the space-air-ground integrated network, resources are unevenly distributed and dynamically change over time.Traditional optimization scheduling methods based on static resource representation only optimize scheduling within a single time slot, leading to low resource utilization.Moreover, frequent strategy adjustments are required when the network changes, resulting in significant migration costs.To address this issue, this paper proposed a method for spatiotemporal correlation representation of resources in the space-air-ground integrated network.This method computed node attention representations in both structural neighborhoods and chronological neighborhoods, enabled precise modeling of spatiotemporal resource correlations in the space-air-ground integrated network.Based on this, this paper proposed a resource precise embedding method based on spatiotemporal correlation representation, and introduced the trust region policy optimization method to adaptively learn and optimize algorithm parameters.
