Abstract Under the background of the rapid development of ground mobile
communication, the advantages of high coverage, survivability, and flexibility of satellite
communication provide air support to the construction of space information network.
According to the requirements of the future space information communication, a
software-defined Space-Air-Ground Integrated network architecture was proposed. It
consisted of layered structure satellite backbone network, deep space communication
network, the stratosphere communication network and the ground network. The SpaceAir-Ground Integrated network was supported by the satellite backbone network. It
provided data relay for the missions such as deep space exploration and controlled the
deep-space spacecraft when needed.… More >
