主 题:Satellite-terrestrial network Software-defined network Artificial intelligence Reconfigurable networking
摘 要:Satellite-Terrestrial integrated Networks(STNs)have been advocated by both academia and industry as a promising network paradigm to achieve service continuity and ***,STNs suffer from problems including poor flexibility of network architecture,low adaptability to dynamic environments,the lack of network intelligence,and low resource *** handle these challenges,a Software defined Intelligent STN(SISTN)architecture is ***,the hierarchical architecture of the proposal is described and a distributed deployment scheme for SISTNs controllers is proposed to realize agile and effective network management and ***,three use cases in SISTNs are ***,key techniques and their corresponding solutions are presented,followed by the identification of several open issues in SISTNs including compatibility with existing networks,the tradeoff between network flexibility and performance,and so on.
