Description
Summary:To address the inadequacies of traditional Advanced Orbiting Systems (AOS) multiplexing algorithms in accommodating the networked and diverse transmission demands of space data, this paper proposes an efficient network AOS integrated multiplexing algorithm based on elastic time slots. The AOS network traffic is categorized into three types based on its characteristics, and a strongly scalable AOS integrated multiplexing model is established, which consists of a packet multiplexing layer, a virtual channel multiplexing layer, and a decision-making layer. For synchronous services, an isochronous frame generation algorithm and a periodic polling virtual channel scheduling algorithm are employed to meet the periodic transmission requirements. For asynchronous non-real-time services, a high-efficiency frame generation algorithm and a uniform queue length virtual channel scheduling algorithm are utilized to satisfy the high-efficiency transmission requirements. For asynchronous real-time services, an adaptive frame generation algorithm based on traffic prediction and a virtual channel scheduling algorithm based on comprehensive channel state are proposed. These algorithms optimize frame generation efficiency and dynamically calculate optimal scheduling results based on virtual channel scheduling status, transmission frame scheduling status, virtual channel priority status, and traffic prediction status, thereby meeting the high dynamics, low latency, and high efficiency transmission requirements. Additionally, a slot preemption-based elastic time slot scheduling strategy is proposed at the decision layer, which dynamically adjusts and optimizes the time slot allocation for the three types of traffic based on the current service request status and time slot occupancy status. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm not only achieves lower average delay, fewer frame residuals, and higher transmission efficiency, but also maintains high stability under different working conditions, effectively meeting the transmission requirements of various types of space network traffic.
