The paper presents a practical network model with multiple LEO satellites, featuring dynamic topology, random traffic arrival, earth-fixed cells, satellite-terrestrial/inter-beam interference, and corresponding interference mitigation. Based on this model, the authors formulate a novel beam management problem to maximize the long-term service satisfaction of beam cells, considering inter-satellite handover frequency, interference constraints, and the guaranteed transmission demand of terrestrial networks.
To handle the challenge caused by the time-averaged objective and handover frequency constraints, the authors leverage the Lyapunov framework to obtain beam management decisions by solving a sequence of single epoch problems. In each epoch, they first identify inter-satellite handover events using a proposed conditional handover triggering mechanism, which keeps load balance among satellites and maintains a low inter-satellite handover frequency. Under the given serving satellites, they further develop low-complexity beam hopping design and satellite-terrestrial spectrum sharing algorithms to maximize service satisfaction.
The authors analyze the computational complexity of the proposed algorithms and show that their approach reduces complexity from an exponential level to a square level. Extensive simulations demonstrate that the proposed beam management approach can satisfy the maximum inter-satellite handover frequency constraint and significantly improve service satisfaction compared to traditional mechanisms, reducing the average data queue length by over 50%.
