Information Flow Design and Verification for Networked Satellite Systems

Abstract

For efficient information sharing and timely processing, networked satellite constellation with the feature of space and terrestrial network integration will be constructed. Information flow design and verification is necessary for networked satellites with complex information interfaces. This paper describes and analyzes information feature classification, information flow based network architecture design, and information flow functionality validation and performance evaluation for networked satellite systems. We also propose design strategy analysis of information transmission, processing and storage as reference and suggestion. Furthermore, an instance of information flow performance evaluation is introduced.
