Investigation of frame mode unification and virtual channel multiplexing based on the multilayered satellite network OISLs interface

摘要

In a multi-layered optical satellite network, a standardized data transmission is a reliable guarantee to efficiently process and transfer multi-service data for the space link. The transmission frame reframing unit (TFRU) is proposed to solve the problem of different service data having low transmission efficiency in the laser link. The TFRU uses a virtual channel (VC) technology to unify the format and rate of transmitted data using second encapsulation and VC scheduling for the service data. The Priority VC schedule algorithm is proposed to further improve multiplex efficiency. According to the principle of TFRU encapsulation and arrival rate of service data, the frame dynamic priority is defined by the VC priority and frame criticality. Furthermore, the Priority VC schedule specific method is provided. The simulation results show that the throughput increases to 3.0546 M, and the scheduling time delay reduces to 0.9183 s. Thus, the system performance has been greatly enhanced. The cache demands are satisfied because the laser terminal data transmission rate is larger than the sum of all service data rates. Using the dynamic schedule generated TFRU frames, the priority algorithm based on the TFRU ensures frame scheduling fairness in each VC. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
