Doppler characterization of laser inter-satellite links for optical LEO satellite constellations

Because of ensuring very low propagation delay between satellites, and providing global space-based broadband network services, low earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations with laser inter-satellite links (ISLs) are considered to be the enabling technology to satisfy the increasing data traffic demand. However, significant Doppler can be observed by the onboard terminals on the ISLs, due to the high relative speed of the two communicating LEO satellites. This paper describes an analytic derivation of the Doppler wavelength shift measured by the terminal onboard a satellite on the signal transmitted through the ISLs. The Point-Ahead Mechanism of the optical ISLs is considered in the analytical expression of the Doppler wavelength shift. Then, in terms of the ISLs characteristics of the satellite constellations, the expression of Doppler wavelength shift is deduced into two aspects. First, for the full time accessing ISLs, it evolves as a function of the constellation parameters. Thus, the Doppler characterization for two kinds of interorbit full time accessing ISLs of LEO satellite constellations is analyzed. Second, for the intermittent accessing ISLs, the expression of Doppler wavelength shift is given as a function of the minimum ISL distance between two communicating satellites. And the visibility duration of the destination satellite at the source satellite is estimated for the intermittent ISLs. This work is helpful to evaluate the design of constellation networking.     

星光掩星探测技术的轨道模拟结果分析

星光掩星技术是利用恒星光谱进行地球及其他行星大气痕量成分密度、温度、气溶胶等测量的有效手段。该探测原理主要是根据不同的大气成分在恒星光谱的不同位置上表现出不同的吸收特征,具体表现在:紫外波段可进行臭氧、氧气、氢气等的测量,可见光谱段可探测二氧化氮、三氧化氮、氧气等,红外可探测水蒸气、气溶胶、甲烷、二氧化碳、氧气等。星光掩星的实现过程为:当LEO卫星和恒星分别位于地球的两侧时,恒星发射的光经过地球大气的吸收、散射等作用,被另一侧的LEO所接收,即构成掩星观测。根据光谱流量得到恒星的视星等范围,给出恒星在天球坐标系中的分布和不同的光谱型,以及利用各光谱型可探测的大气成分,再利用恒星和LEO卫星在地固坐标系中的相对位置,进行恒星-LEO星光掩星轨道观测模拟,基本流程为:首先读取LEO卫星的轨道位置以及目标恒星的位置,设置24 h的模拟时间,其次判断是否处于掩星状态,当掩星开始时,计算并输出掩星发生的经纬度、速度等,直至模拟时间结束。其中涉及恒星从天球坐标系转换到地固系的过程, LEO卫星轨道、掩星切点经纬度等的计算。根据模拟流程,计算并分析掩星事件的日观测量、全球分布、持续时间以及漂移速度等,得到以下结果:(1)目标恒星在全天区都有一定数量的分布且具有不同的光谱型,可进行臭氧、二氧化氮等成分的探测;(2)在对星光掩星进行24 h的轨道模拟过程中,日观测量为5 563次,其中包括2 737次上升掩星, 2 826次下降掩星;(3)从全球分布来看,掩星事件主要分布在低纬度,两极最少,其他纬度数量相当,且经度方向分布均匀;(4)根据方位角的分布,正常掩星占比为78.25%,持续时间平均为1.5 min,切点水平漂移在18~600 km;(5)21.75%的侧面掩星事件,其较正常掩星来说,持续时间长,切点的水平漂移速度大,方位角变化也大。该结果为卫星轨道设计和探测载荷设计提供理论指导。     

Doppler effect performance for multiple hops optical connections in LEO satellite constellations

Low earth orbit satellite constellations using laser inter-satellite links are recognized to be capable to satisfy the increasing broadband communication demands. However, Doppler in inter-satellite laser communications can degrade the performance of the optical space network. It is crucial to study the Doppler performance on the high precision system. The expression of Doppler wavelength shift for multiple hops laser inter-satellite links is proposed in the paper. The calculation of Doppler wavelength shift in multiple hops ISL is studied with the consideration of location, motion and onboard characters of the satellites. Theoretical and numerical analysis show different routing way between two certain distant satellites will lead to different Doppler wavelength shift and signal transmitting time, and the variation of Doppler wavelength shift is mostly depend on the number of laser inter-satellite links hops; reasonable onboard time delay can augment signal transmitting time with little influence to the Doppler wavelength shift. It is hoped that the study can help the routing selection of the optical space network and system compensation.     

Analysis of queuing delay in optical space network on LEO satellite constellations

Low earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations using laser inter-satellite links (ISLs) are recognized as a promising technology to provide global broadband network services. In this paper, the queuing delay model of an optical space network built on LEO satellite constellations is established. It is assumed that the optical space network employs wavelength division multiplexing ISLs with wavelength routing technology to communication satellites and makes routing decisions. With consideration of the network task characterizations such as distribution of task arrival time and task holding duration, simulation experiment results are analyzed and the expression of optical space network queuing delay is given. Both theoretical analysis and simulation results show that features of queuing delay vary with distribution characterizations of the network tasks. It is hoped that the study can be helpful to evaluate the design of constellation networking.     

Analysis of Doppler-effeet on satellite constellations with wavelength division multiplexing architectures

With the development of optical space communications, a global space-based optical backbone network is currently proposed by using broadband laser inter-satellite links (ISLs) which enable routing traffic through the space. Satellite optical networking techniques based on wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) ISLs can transit significantly high data rates signals. In this letter, a new function of wavelength excursion due to Doppler-effect is developed for the ISLs, considering the conception of pointing ahead mechanism. The characteristic of wavelength excursion induced by Doppler-effect is examined in one of low earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation networks named the next-generation LEO system (NeLS) with WDM ISLs assumed, and the influence on its communications caused by wavelength excursion is analyzed.     

Robust Beamforming Based on Graph Attention Networks for IRS-Assisted Satellite IoT Communications

Satellite communication is expected to play a vital role in realizing Internet of Remote Things (IoRT) applications. This article considers an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS)-assisted downlink low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite communication network, where IRS provides additional reflective links to enhance the intended signal power. We aim to maximize the sum-rate of all the terrestrial users by jointly optimizing the satellite’s precoding matrix and IRS’s phase shifts. However, it is difficult to directly acquire the instantaneous channel state information (CSI) and optimal phase shifts of IRS due to the high mobility of LEO and the passive nature of reflective elements. Moreover, most conventional solution algorithms suffer from high computational complexity and are not applicable to these dynamic scenarios. A robust beamforming design based on graph attention networks (RBF-GAT) is proposed to establish a direct mapping from the received pilots and dynamic network topology to the satellite and IRS’s beamforming, which is trained offline using the unsupervised learning approach. The simulation results corroborate that the proposed RBF-GAT approach can achieve more than 95% of the performance provided by the upper bound with low complexity.

Design and performance evaluation of the imaging payload for a remote sensing satellite

In this paper an analysis method and corresponding analytical tools for design of the experimental imaging payload (IMPL) of a remote sensing satellite (SINA-1) are presented. We begin with top-level customer system performance requirements and constraints and derive the critical system and component parameters, then analyze imaging payload performance until a preliminary design that meets customer requirements. We consider system parameters and components composing the image chain for imaging payload system which includes aperture, focal length, field of view, image plane dimensions, pixel dimensions, detection quantum efficiency, and optical filter requirements. The performance analysis is accomplished by calculating the imaging payload's SNR (signal-to-noise ratio), and imaging resolution. The noise components include photon noise due to signal scene and atmospheric background, cold shield, out-of-band optical filter leakage and electronic noise. System resolution is simulated through cascaded modulation transfer functions (MTFs) and includes effects due to optics, image sampling, and system motion. Calculations results for the SINA-1 satellite are also presented.
