Abstract

The design of Very High Throughput Satellite (VHTS) systems will be an important milestone for future telecommunications systems in the light of the ongoing integration between satellite and 5G technologies as well as with the upcoming 6 G evolution. To this end, satellite systems will be operating at EHF frequency bands, hence requiring a special attention to the overall network design in terms of ground and space segment optimisation. In particular, the mitigation of feeder link outage events through advanced prediction techniques and the exploitation of smart gateway diversity concepts will be combined with an overarching network resources’ orchestration, jointly conceived to meet the QoS requirements of the end users. In this respect, this paper proposes a novel optimisation framework able to achieve very high throughput system figures, building on an adaptive QoS management concept. The proposed framework has been compared with other existing solutions from the literature and validated by means of extensive simulation campaigns, whose collected results show significant performance improvements.
