Beam hopping(BH) is an emerging technology for effectively addressing the issue of low resource utilization caused by the non-uniform spatio-temporal distribution of traffic demands. However, how to allocate multi-dimensional resources in a timely and efficient way for the highly dynamic LEO satellite systems remains a challenge. This paper proposes a joint beam scheduling and power optimization beam hopping(JBSPO-BH) algorithm considering the differences in the geographic distribution of sink nodes. The JBSPO-BH algorithm decouples the original problem into two sub-problems. The beam scheduling problem is modelled as a potential game,and the Nash equilibrium(NE) point is obtained as the beam scheduling strategy. Moreover, the penalty function interior point method is applied to optimize the power allocation. Simulation results show that the JBSPO-BH algorithm has low time complexity and fast convergence and achieves better performance both in throughput and fairness. Compared with greedybased BH, greedy-based BH with the power optimization, round-robin BH, Max-SINR BH and satellite resource allocation algorithm, the throughput of the proposed algorithm is improved by 44.99%, 20.79%,156.06%, 15.39% and 8.17%, respectively.展开更多

文摘针对无线传感网络中传统DV-Hop(Distance Vector Hop)定位算法节点分布不均匀导致定位误差较大的问题,提出了非均匀网络中半径可调的ARDV-Hop(Adjustable Radius DV-Hop in Non-uniform Networks)定位算法。该算法通过半径可调的方式对节点间的跳数进行细化,用细化后呈小数级的跳数代替传统的整数级跳数,并建立了数据能量消耗模型,优化了网络传输性能。ARDV-Hop算法还针对节点分布不均匀的区域提出跳距优化算法:在节点密度大的区域,采用余弦定理优化跳距;密度小的区域,采用最小均方误差(Least Mean Square,LMS)来修正跳距。仿真实验表明,在同等网络环境下,与传统DV-Hop算法、GDV-Hop算法和WOA-DV-Hop算法相比,ARDV-Hop算法能更有效地降低定位误差.
