“…Currently, SIN becomes increasingly important in both civilian and military fields, in which constellation design is needed not only coverage capability but also some new requirements [16], [17]. For constructing a global satellite communication system, constellation design is a critical preparation before launching the satellites.…”

Low earth orbit (LEO) satellite broadband network is a crucial part of the space information network. LEO satellite constellation design is a top-level design, which plays a decisive role in the overall performance of the LEO satellite network. However, the existing works on constellation design mainly focus on the coverage criterion and rarely take network performance into the design process. In this article, we develop a unified framework for constellation optimization design in LEO satellite broadband networks. Several design criteria including network performance and coverage capability are combined into the design process. Firstly, the quality of service (QoS) metrics is presented to evaluate the performance of the LEO satellite broadband network. Also, we propose a network stability model for the rapid change of the satellite network topology. Besides, a mathematical model of constellation optimization design is formulated by considering the network cost-efficiency and stability. Then, an optimization algorithm based on non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm-Ⅱ (NSGA-Ⅱ) is provided for the problem of constellation design. Finally, the proposed method is further evaluated through numerical simulations. Simulation results validate the proposed method and show that it is an efficient and effective approach for solving the problem of constellation design in LEO satellite broadband networks. . His current research interests include microstrip antennas, array antenna, SIW technology, spoof surface plasmons and metamaterials.

“…In general, research on constellation design mainly considers the coverage properties (Liang et al, 2011), rather than the ISLs or satellite networking performance, which means there is a lack of proper evaluation models. Furthermore, as it is a multi-objective discrete nonlinear problem confronted with high computing complexity and the probability of getting trapped into local optimal solutions, constellation design optimisation in some papers (Curry et al, 2015;Meziane-Tani et al, 2016) may not achieve the global optimal results. It seems that constellation optimisation is indeed an effective way, but a step-by-step design method based on analysis can be more efficient, especially for SCN design.…”

Design of a Low Earth Orbit Satellite Constellation Network for Air Traffic Surveillance

et al. 2020

The satellite constellation with automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast on-board is of great importance for air traffic surveillance due to its multiple advantages compared with traditional methods. Although some research has been conducted on satellite constellation design based on coverage performance, the findings cannot entirely satisfy all the requirements of air traffic surveillance owing to the lack of analysis on inter-satellite links and network transmission. This paper presents a novel design of a low earth orbit satellite constellation network to solve this problem. Based on the requirements of space-based surveillance, an evaluation model of constellation performance is proposed concerning coverage, link and transmission. The simulation results show that the evaluation model can reflect the performance of a satellite constellation network designed for a space-based surveillance system, and a 55-satellite constellation design scheme with fairly good performance can fulfil the function of global real-time air traffic surveillance.
