Abstract

In this work, as presented in Fig. 5.1, a low Earth orbit (LEO) mega-constellation communication scenario is considered, which consists of a terrestrial source-destination (S-D) pair, K (K > 2) LEO satellites, 1 ≤ p < q ≤ K, a ground relay (G), an aerial relay (A), and a relay satellite (S0) with higher orbit compared to the LEO satellites. More specifically, S and D can communicate with each other via the inter-LEOsatellite link according to the original design of the LEO satellite communication system.
