    摘要: The present disclosure provides a method for wave propagation prediction based on a 3D ray tracing engine and machine-learning based dominant ray selection. The method includes receiving, integrating, and processing input data. Integrating and processing the input data includes dividing a cone of the original millimeter wave (mmWave) into a plurality of sub cones; determining a contribution weight of rays coming from each sub cone to the received signal strength (RSS) at a receiving end of interest; and determining rays coming from one or more sub cones that have a total contribution weight to the RSS larger than a preset threshold value as dominant rays using a neural network obtained through a machine learning approach. The method further includes performing ray tracing based on the input data and the dominant rays to predict wave propagation.

    摘要: Routing methods are provided for IP-based Iridium like LEO polar satellite constellation network for finding a Manhattan path between a source node and a destination node. The routing methods can include identification of congested inter satellite links (ISLs). By selecting and using uncongested alternative paths, an original routing process can be converted into sub-routing processes each in a small scale of a Manhattan path region. Quality of Service (QoS) requirements such as delays and jitters can be incorporated into the routing methods, which leads to efficient routing and enhanced QoS-performance over the satellite constellation network. The disclosed routing methods can be suitable for real-time routing/rerouting applications under dynamic network conditions.

    摘要: A system and method are provided for enhanced multi-way time transfer for time synchronization between at least one slave node and one master node. A slave node sends a first message to the master node to launch a time synchronization between the slave node and the master node. Upon receiving the first message, the master node adds a receiving time on a master clock to the first message to form a second message. The master node sends the second message back to the slave node and the slave node adds a receiving time on the slave clock to the second message to form an updated message. The slave node performs a time adjustment to the slave clock based on the updated message, thereby synchronizing time between the slave node and the master node.

    摘要: A method for emulating a communication system with fast changing link condition, applied to a testbed system including an interference emulator, a transmitter, and a receiver, includes: by the transmitter, generating code-word symbols, in an initial symbol sequence, according to information bits; evaluating an interference condition and a time duration for each code-word symbol; reordering the code-word symbols to a reordered symbol sequence based on interference conditions; evaluating a total time duration of code-word symbols under each interference condition; and transmitting the code-word symbols in the reordered symbol sequence. The method also includes: by the interference emulator, obtaining the total time duration of code-word symbols under each interference condition from the transmitter; and providing an emulated interference environment by ordering the time durations of different interference conditions. The start time for transmitting code-word symbols with an interference condition is synchronized with the start time for emulating the interference condition.

The terminal agent is configured to, based on a current allowable data rate and measurements of a current router queue size and a current router packet arrival rate, use a delayed uplink resource assignment for each modem and an MCV-based flow-control policy to forecast a future router queue size and a future router packet arrival rate and further update the delayed uplink resource request for a time after an uplink allocation delay. The modem is configured to communicate with the router and also with the satellite system controller through the satellite transponder, perform modulation and demodulation, and manage packet loss and delay according to the future router queue size and the future router packet arrival rate.
