Hybrid satellite terrestrial relay networks with cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access
In this letter, we investigate the outage probability (OP) and ergodic capacity of the downlink hybrid satellite terrestrial relay networks (HSTRNs) with a cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access (C-NOMA) scheme, in which a user with better channel condition acts as a relay node and forwards information to other users, thus alleviating the masking effect of users with poor channel conditions in heavy shadowing. Specifically, the exact analytical expression for the OP of the considered system is derived. Furthermore, the ergodic capacity expression is also developed to facilitate performance evaluation of the proposed framework. Finally, the simulations are provided to show the impact of key parameters on the considered system and the superiority of introducing the C-NOMA scheme to the HSTRNs
Internet of Things-Enabled Overlay Satellite-Terrestrial Networks in the Presence of Interference
In this paper, we consider an overlay satellite-terrestrial network (OSTN)
where an opportunistically selected terrestrial IoT network assist primary
satellite communications as well as access the spectrum for its own
communications in the presence of combined interference from extra-terrestrial
and terrestrial sources. Hereby, a power domain multiplexing is adopted by the
IoT network by splitting its power appropriately among the satellite and IoT
signals. Relying upon an amplify-and-forward (AF)-based opportunistic IoT
network selection strategy that minimizes the outage probability (OP) of
satellite network, we derive the closed-form lower bound OP expressions for
both the satellite and IoT networks. We further derive the corresponding
asymptotic OP expressions to examine the achievable diversity order of two
networks. We show that the proposed OSTN with adaptive power splitting factor
benefits IoT network while guaranteeing the quality of service (QoS) of
satellite network. We verify the numerical results by simulations.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures, Submitted to National Conference on

Collaborative Multi-Resource Allocation in Terrestrial-Satellite Network Towards 6G
Terrestrial-satellite networks (TSNs) are envisioned to play a significant role in the sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks. In such networks, hot air balloons are useful as they can relay the signals between satellites and ground stations. Most existing works assume that the hot air balloons are deployed at the same height with the same minimum elevation angle to the satellites, which may not be practical due to possible route conflict with airplanes and other flight equipment. In this paper, we consider a TSN containing hot air balloons at different heights and with different minimum elevation angles, which creates the challenge of non-uniform available serving time for the communication between the hot air balloons and the satellites. Jointly considering the caching, computing, and communication (3C) resource management for both the ground-balloon-satellite links and inter-satellite laser links, our objective is to maximize the network energy efficiency. Firstly, by proposing a tapped water-filling algorithm, we schedule the traffic to relay among satellites according to the available serving time of satellites. Then, we generate a series of configuration matrices, based on which we formulate the relation between relay time and the power consumption involved in the relay among satellites. Finally, the collaborative resource allocation problem for TSN is modeled and solved by geometric programming with Taylor series approximation. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed scheme
